Road freight is our backbone — point-to-point, multi-drop and connecting legs with accountability from Truganina.
Scope and role
From 155/50 Palmers Road, Truganina, HPS FREIGHT provides Victorian and connecting road freight for Victorian importers, distributors and manufacturers when receiving rules, documentation or lane complexity exceed a simple courier booking.
Road dispatch, warehouse handling and customer communication stay in one office so you are not chasing separate providers when a shipment changes.
Planning before dispatch
Quotes use real cargo data: weight, cubic measure, pallet count, pickup and delivery constraints, and site instructions. Call 03 8820 5141 or email info@hpsfreight.com.au with complete detail.
We confirm vehicle type, cut-off times and compliance paperwork before wheels roll. Regulated goods with incomplete documentation are not moved.
On-road execution
Drivers present consignment notes that match receiver references. Tail-lift, hand unload and forklift deliveries are booked deliberately.
Refused deliveries are recorded with reasons. We discuss re-delivery options transparently.
Warehouse linkage
When Victorian and connecting road freight includes storage, inbound manifests align with outbound runs to avoid idle double handling.
Advance shipment notices help allocate dock time. Label photos reduce SKU mismatches when carton codes differ from your inventory system.
Import and export touchpoints
Forwarding coordination aligns broker release with de-stuff, storage and Victorian road legs.
Containers should not sit in port precincts while transport is re-quoted from scratch on each arrival.
Capacity and peak periods
We prefer early volume conversations. Cut-off changes are communicated in writing during busy weeks.
Holding capacity honestly protects core customers instead of accepting everything and failing selectively.
Measurement that matters
Performance is measured against agreed windows and documented handovers, not informal expectations.
Share receiving hours, holiday closures and peak blackouts at the start of a relationship.
Enquiries

Call 03 8820 5141 after submitting for urgent freight.
Full and part loads
We arrange full truckload, part load and scheduled multi-drop freight from Truganina across Victoria. Vehicle type follows cargo dimensions, weight distribution and receiver equipment — not habit alone.
Curtain-siders, tail-lift vehicles and configurations for hand unload are booked intentionally. Assuming forklift availability at every site is a common cause of refused deliveries.
Multi-drop sequencing
Western Melbourne runs often combine industrial and retail stops within short distances. We sequence by receiving rules and booking requirements, not by postcode alone.
Weekly forecasts help anchor regular slots and reserve contingency capacity for urgent additions without rebuilding entire routes.
Interstate connections
Victorian legs and handover to linehaul partners are quoted with clear responsibility boundaries. We document handover time, seals where applicable, and pallet count on transfer manifests.
Published interstate transit days assume standard lanes and depot processing — we state ranges and assumptions in writing.
Proof and exceptions
Proof-of-delivery is captured consistently. Refused deliveries include reason codes so your team can resolve customer queries with facts.
Regulated goods require complete paperwork before wheels roll — our office declines incomplete bookings.
