Tamworth Freight Services

The commercial heart of the New England region, Tamworth sustains year-round freight in equine industry supply, construction, retail and institutional replenishment — with seasonal peaks around the country-music festival and major showground events. QFM brings loads into the city from every Australian capital via the New England Highway, with outbound pickups available on request.

Inbound freight typically routes through Sydney and the Hunter Valley (four to five hours), or from Brisbane through Armidale, giving QFM two main highway routes to price against. Regional on-forwarding to Armidale, Gunnedah, Quirindi, Manilla, Barraba, Walcha and Inverell extends coverage across the New England Tablelands and Liverpool Plains.
