Dear Clients
We have been advised that both DP World and Victorian International Container Terminal (VICT) have announced increases to their fees effective from the 1st January 2021.
We have also been advised that there will be an adjustment to the Toll Fees to take into account the increases that have occurred with them.
As of the 1st January the cost will be as follows
- TIME SLOT - DPW - $135.00 Pat & VICT - $125.00
- TERMINAL ACCESS Charge – DPW - $165.00 PAT - $165.00 VICT - $175.00.
- TOLLS – Monash - $60.00 TULLA - $35.00 WESTGATE - $20.00.
Unfortunately there have been increases in costs from across the logistics chain over the last few months with increased freight rates and additional fees such as congestion fees charged by the shipping lines.
I have attached the below link to give you some information on what the transport operating issues are in Melbourne currently.
