Charters Towers Freight Services

Ninety minutes inland from Townsville on the Flinders Highway, Charters Towers still carries the infrastructure of a goldfield town — mining-services depots, heritage buildings under restoration and a regional education hub. QFM reaches the town with pallet, carton and construction loads routed through Townsville, linking Charters Towers to Brisbane and all capitals.

Gold may no longer dominate the economy, but the mining-services supply chain persists alongside construction, institutional replenishment and tourism-related freight. The Flinders Highway also connects Charters Towers westward to Hughenden, Cloncurry and Mount Isa, making the town a waypoint for North West Queensland freight. QFM coordinates inbound deliveries and outbound pickups across the industrial estate and surrounding precincts.
