MACHINERY IMPORTING CASE STUDY
The process involved meetings regarding Import Duty & GST liability, inductions, logistic capabilities , site inspections Australia-wide and to plan trucking and unpacking of 70 containers on-site, into small areas and finally the strategic placement of machines into store.
14 x 40’ CONTAINERS PROJECT CASE STUDY
Wallace International was contacted by a large national company in Melbourne regarding a substantial Freight project involving 14 x 40’ containers. They had already placed this order overseas. The German supplier arranged a CIP Term (Carriage and Insurance Paid to) which took the 14 containers as far as Melbourne Port with no documentation submitted for the process. At this point, there was no consultation with regards to the Import Clearance requirements nor the Import Duty and Tax liabilities.
THE ANTONOV
One of the projects that still makes us incredibly proud, is this one where an Antonov had to be booked to make things happen for our client. The objective was getting an oversized machine segment (replacements part) from Australia to the UK as soon as possible so the machine could keep functioning without having to encounter an extreme loss on profit. The machine was going to take around 6 months getting manufactured and sea-freighted to the UK which meant millions of dollars worth of losses.
Tradeshows, Events & Festivals
We understand the level of investment that our clients put towards these events therefore we believe these types of projects require special personalised care.

EVENTS & SHOWS CASE STUDY
We recently customs cleared and delivered a 40ft container of stage show equipment into Melbourne under carnet. We were up against tight deadlines for the first show but negotiated the carnet and quarantine clearance swiftly without complications.
FESTIVALS CASE STUDY
We recently handled the equipment for a Theatre Festival performing in ‘Her Majesty Theatre’ Auckland. This cargo was 8347 Kgs 46.29 CBM. Due to the tight time line this shipment needed to be airfreighted from Adelaide to Auckland to meet the deadline.
Energy, Oil, Gas & Construction
Wallace International have been involved in large Oil and Gas Mining projects with staging and long-haul requirements.
Project cargo can relate to many forms, whether a single high volume / value consignment requiring specialist attention to long term (2-3 year) contracts with on-going monitoring. Project type equipment can vary from containers of Solar Panels for Eco-Farm construction, to out of gauge Oil and Gas equipment for Oil Rigs and Mining developments.
Our specialised team ensures a smooth transition of cargo throughout the complete International freight and logistics supply chain. Understanding the importance of an accurate, complete and precise scope of works by both parties optimises the overall success of the project door to door. We ensure the overall management is completed with an experienced, motivated and professional attitude.
