Canberra Freight Services

Three hours south of Sydney down the Hume and Federal highways, Canberra is Australia's administrative capital — a city whose freight profile is defined by government, national institutions, defence, universities and research bodies. QFM circulates pallet, carton and commercial loads through Civic, Barton, Parliament precinct, Fyshwick and the broader ACT, with outbound pickups handled as required.

Office fit-outs, IT hardware, institutional furniture, archival and document-storage freight, and university supply all drive steady inbound volume. Security-cleared deliveries, booked dock windows and Parliamentary-precinct access are common requirements QFM coordinates with carrier partners. Regional on-forwarding covers Goulburn, Yass, Cooma and Bungendore.
