Air Freight

Whether it's a time-critical part needed on a production line tomorrow or a regular shipment moving between continents, MACH1 manages your air freight from booking to delivery. Our experienced agents handle every aspect of your air cargo, domestic and international, to and from all major airports in Australia and overseas.

We work with a network of commercial and freighter airlines to find the fastest, most cost-effective routing for your shipment. You get a dedicated account manager who coordinates the entire process so you're not chasing updates or juggling multiple contacts.

Domestic air freight

For cargo that needs to move fast within Australia, we arrange air freight between all major capital city airports and key regional centres. Whether it's same-day urgent delivery or a next-morning service, we match the speed of service to your deadline and budget.

Our domestic air freight covers express and same-day consignments between capital cities, next-flight-out services for urgent shipments, scheduled air freight for regular volumes, airport-to-airport or full door-to-door delivery, and charter services when standard flights won't cut it.

International air freight

Moving goods in or out of Australia by air involves more than just booking cargo space. We coordinate the full chain from pickup at origin through to customs clearance, airline booking, transit handling and final delivery at destination. Our global agent network means we have people on the ground at both ends of the journey.

We handle export and import air freight to and from all major international trade hubs, consolidation services for smaller shipments that don't fill a full unit, dangerous goods and specialist cargo subject to IATA compliance, temperature-controlled and perishable freight, and high-value or sensitive cargo requiring additional security handling.

What we can move by air

Air freight handles a broad range of cargo types. General commercial goods and spare parts, machinery components and industrial equipment, medical supplies and pharmaceutical products, perishable goods including seafood, fresh produce and flowers, dangerous goods (fully IATA compliant), documents and time-sensitive materials, trade show and exhibition freight, and oversized or project cargo where air is the only option that meets the timeline.

If you're not sure whether air freight is the right mode for your shipment, talk to us. We'll assess your timeline, budget and cargo type and recommend the best option, even if that means sea or road makes more sense.
