Packaging Requirements

The following are guidelines to follow before you ship with Transdirect.

  • Packages over 25kg should be split into two cartons where possible
  • Use cushioning materials to protect goods during transit
  • Properly seal all cartons using robust tape so it does not open
  • Write FRAGILE on the box to let us know it requires careful handling
  • Read our Terms and Conditions
  • Print out the consignment note and secure it to the carton
  • Clearly write the delivery address on the box and consignment number
  • Remove all old delivery labels on the box
  • Suitcases and travel cases need to be securely fastened
  • Large and unpackaged items will not be shipped
  • Items over 25kg must be packed on a pallet or crate so they can easily be moved by forklift
  • Lifting equipment must be available at the sending and receiving addresses, otherwise select the Hydraulic Tail lift option
  • For items over 25kgs, you must ensure there is assistance for loading and unloading unless you have selected the Tail lift options, otherwise there will be additional fees
  • Items on a pallet must be properly secured and must not overhang the pallet/skid
  • Obscure objects need to be packaged into a crate for the transit warranty to apply
  • Ensure all strapping does not obstruct forklift tongues during loading and unloading

Please note that we cannot ship dangerous goods, unpackaged items, or objects that exceed 4 metres in length. For more details about our shipping requirements, you can call our customer service team at 1300 668 229.
