Services Information

RR Lawson – moving your freight where it needs to be, fast!

We help you navigate the complex and frustrating stack of government paperwork, and make sure that we deliver on our promise – move your freight to or outside Australia with the least amount of hassle on your part.

Most importantly, our goal is to do that as cost-effectively as possible!

We offer the following services to help you achieve these objectives:

We handle airfreight and sea freight forwarding for cargo of all sizes, as well as warehousing, distribution and domestic deliveries. We can advise you on freight costs, port charges, local delivery costs and freight handling fees. We can also take care of the dreaded paperwork and advise you on the most appropriate form of transportation for your needs and budget.

To confirm the integrity and safety of your cargo, DAFF (Australian Quarantine) and the Australian Customs Service (ACS) will occasionally require inspections. We can make your life a little easier by taking care of this necessary, but sometimes confusing, requirement.

We correspond and lodge Quarantine Declarations on your behalf to obtain DAFF (Quarantine) clearance and ensure compliance with quarantine rules.

By outsourcing your shipping department, you will save yourself time, stress and money. We can pick up shipments from any air and sea port in the world and deliver them to your designated location.

We can also store your cargo, manage the inventory and distribute your goods so your customers can get them when needed. Let us tick those boxes for you so you can stay focused on running your business while we help you keep the customers happy!

As customs consultants, we provide advice on how to reduce your import and export costs. Here we will sit down with you to identify your needs, understand your unique circumstances and help you explore your options so you can make an informed decision.

We can advise you on the following:

  • Duty and GST rates for imported cargo
  • Tariff Advices
  • Tariff Concession Orders
  • Tariff Classifications
  • Duty Drawback and Refunds
  • Import and Export Procedures
  • DAFF (Quarantine) Clearance Advice
  • The Tradex Scheme (you may be able to get an up-front exemption from Customs Duty and GST on some imported goods)

As transportation experts and customs clearance specialists, we can also liaise with Customs on your behalf to cut costs and speed up your shipment and delivery times.

If you have questions about our services, then we invite you to call +61 3 9621 2636 or contact us via email info@rrlawson.com.au.

We look forward to taking care of your shipment soon!
