Please be advised that the Ocean Carriers operating the United States Southbound Direct Services to Australia & New Zealand have announced a General Rate Increase (GRI).
The GRI will be effective from the 15th of August 2020 (Cargo Received Date).
Attached is an example of this notification from One of the carriers, Hamburg Sud.
According to the notifications received, the GRI Base rate increase will be as below:

TCF have been communicating with various carriers since the announcement in an effort to have the GRI mitigated where possible.
The carriers however, have confirmed that the increases will stand and will remain effective from the 15th August.
