Get The Best Value from your Shipping Dollar

At WF Plastic, we understand that shipping costs play a significant role in our customers' decision to purchase from us.  Accordingly, we go to great lengths to keep shipping costs as low as possible.

 

WF Plastic has a number of shipping partners to choose from depending upon your needs:     

• Direct Freight Express - for our national freight
• Clipper Parcels - for smaller deliveries in Sydney and surrounding areas, including Sydney metro dangerous goods
• WF Plastic Delivery Fleet - for local deliveries in the Sydney metropolitan area
• Pallet Freight (to be quoted) - for larger consignments Australia wide

 

Clipper Parcels is offered for all Sydney consignments from letter size to a V-Weight of 150kg. Clipper Parcels collects from us every morning, and tries to deliver to our customers that afternoon. Certain destinations (like Newcastle, Blue Mountains and Central Coast) are usually delivered the following day.  

 

Direct Freight Express is an extremely competitive freighter.  They deliver nationally at very competitive rates and can handle large complex consignments. They calculate freight costs based on the delivery postcode / suburb, and the combined V-Weight of the consignment.  The first 10kg of any consignent shipped with Direct Freight Express attracts a flat rate. After the first 10kg, the shipping cost for the consignment is calculated per kg.

 

One of the best features of Direct Freight Express is that a single consignment can consist of multiple cartons. This means that, even for larger consignments, they'll only charge the initial flat rate fee once. Other carriers who use a ticket based system will charge the cost of a ticket for each carton.

The daily cut off time for Direct Freight Express bookings for same day dispatch is 12pm. Remember that we need time to process, pack and book your order prior to their 3pm pickup from us. 

 

Pallet Freight (to be quoted) is offered for larger consignments Australia wide. We have a network of shipping partners that service most major nodes in Australia.  We are able to ship pallet freight to destinations in the Sydney area at very competitive rates.

 

If your automated freight calculation is high, and you're located in the Sydney metropolitan area, we may advise you to select Pallet Freight instead.

 

 

For minor nodes, we generally prefer to use a carrier local to the customer. Family businesses are usually given preference due to their more competitive pricing structures. We seek a minimum of two quotations for pallet shipping prior to advising the customer of the prices that we have obtained.
