Warehouse operations include receiving, holding, pick preparation and outbound dispatch tied to manifests.
Scope and role
From 155/50 Palmers Road, Truganina, HPS FREIGHT provides warehouse operations at Truganina 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 warehouse operations at Truganina 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.

Inbound operations
Dock appointments, advance shipment notices and broker alignment for imports prevent receiving queues that steal dispatch capacity.
Receipt confirmation is sent when volumes allow the same business day — your operations team can release sales orders against fact.
Inventory holding
Storage is billed with clarity on pallet positions, overflow floor use and any repalletising agreed after weak inbound quality.
Hold areas for damaged or unconfirmed SKU stock are separated from saleable pick faces.
Pick and dispatch preparation
Outbound waves follow manifests tied to road bookings. Pick paths stay walkable — we push back on layouts that sacrifice accuracy for short-term space.
Same-day dispatch requires goods ready before published cut-off; late stock rolls to the next wave transparently.
Returns handling
Return freight scans into a distinct workflow with reason codes so it is not dispatched again as saleable stock by mistake.
Link returns to original outbound consignments when possible — resolution is faster for everyone.
