Expertly Clearing Full Container Loads (FCLs)

Full Container Loads (FCLs) arriving at Flinders Ports are subject to tight schedules. The stevedore typically allows three [3] free calendar days for containers to remain without incurring storage fees. Port Adelaide Customs Brokers™ prioritises pre-clearing FCLs days or even weeks before their arrival to avoid any delays or penalties.

Suppose an FCL reaches Flinders Ports without prior clearance. In that case, our team swiftly works to get it approved through both the Australian Border Force (ABF) and the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry (DAFF). This efficient process minimises both storage costs and the time spent at the terminal.
