PORT INFRASTRUCTURE FEE INCREASES - AUSTRALIA WIDE EFFECTIVE 1 JANUARY 2020

Further to TCF's Broadcasts in January and again in August 2019 regarding the increased Port Infrastructure fees at Australian ports being levied by DP World and Patricks, please note that all ports across all states in Australia, with the exception of Adelaide, have increased their fees effective 1st January 2020.

TCF understands the impact this surcharge will have but unfortunately with transport companies already passing on the increase, we will need to pass this cost on to our clients. 

Effective immediately, please find below the current Infrastructure fees that will be levied per container as a result of these increases for:  

SYDNEY - $110.00 + GST 

MELBOURNE - $135.00 + GST

BRISBANE - $115.00 + GST 

FREMANTLE - $50.00 + GST 

ADELAIDE - $55.00 + GST (remains unchanged)

LCL charges - $6.00 per w/m (minimum $10.00) + GST

TCF will continue to monitor the situation and these levies and communicate with the transport industry in an effort to keep our customers well informed.
