How quick can I get my air freight moving?

As an IATA accredited air freight forwarder that works with small, medium and large businesses in Australia, we are asked this specific question about air freight frequently. To determine how quick BCR can get your air freight moving, there are a few questions that need to be answered in relation to your air freight shipment.

1. Have you paid your supplier and have they received settlement? If you have paid the supplier and they have received the settlement, the supplier can issue a Commercial Invoice and advise a cargo ready date for your air freight shipment.
2. Do you have credit terms with the supplier? If you do, your supplier can issue a Commercial Invoice and advise a cargo ready date for your air freight shipment.

Once we have been advised of the cargo ready date and have received the required documents, in most cases BCR can arrange air freight cargo collections within a day of being notified that the goods are ready and the above points are in order. The transit time to deliver to your door is dependent on the supplier’s origin location, air freight space available with the  air freight carrier and any transit points the cargo may go through. The average transit time for air freight is between 2 to 5 days.

For decades, BCR has been providing efficient air freight services to businesses all over Australia including Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth and Adelaide. To simply your logistics, BCR also provides 3PL warehousing, sea freight services, coastal shipping and a team of dedicated Customs Brokers.
