Mildura Freight Services

Sitting where Victoria, New South Wales and South Australia converge, Mildura acts as the Sunraysia corridor's freight hub for beverage, construction and wholesale distribution. QFM moves pallet, carton and trade loads into Mildura from every Australian capital — most via the Calder Highway from Melbourne or the Sturt Highway from Adelaide — with outbound collections available on request.

The tri-state location makes Mildura a natural consolidation point for wine-region packaging, bottling equipment, building materials and retail stock. Outbound loads travel south to Melbourne or west to Adelaide for interstate linehaul, while regional on-forwarding to Red Cliffs, Merbein, Wentworth, Robinvale, Ouyen and Swan Hill covers the wider Sunraysia and Mallee.

Calder & Sturt Highway Tri-State Lanes

Mildura has two main highway routes — Calder south to Melbourne, Sturt west to Adelaide. QFM prices both and returns the corridor that best fits your transit and cost requirements. Send the load profile and we will match the lane.
