Mount Gambier Freight Services

Twenty minutes from the Victorian border at the heart of the Limestone Coast, Mount Gambier is SA's second-largest city and the commercial base of the Green Triangle forestry region. QFM scales pallet, carton and trade loads into Mount Gambier CBD and the industrial areas at Wehl Street and Suttontown from both Adelaide and Melbourne via the Princes and Riddoch highways.

Timber-mill servicing, construction inputs, trade supply and tourism replenishment drive consistent year-round inbound. Victorian-corridor routing via Portland and Hamilton is often quicker than Adelaide-side routing for businesses whose suppliers sit in Melbourne. On-forwarding reaches Penola, Millicent, Naracoorte, Robe, Beachport and Kingston SE across the Limestone Coast.
