The company did ok. Their contractor missed the first pick up so it was picked up the following day. Package arrived sooner than expected but there was some damage to the item.

Probably the worst delivery service…

Probably the worst delivery service I've ever experienced. Transdirect refused to deliver product to my door as there were stairs (12)!! They offered for me to go way out west to their warehouse to pickup my item after I paid $350 to transport it from Melbourne. Or they offered to deliver it curbside- ie dump a large piece of furniture on the roadside because they only employ one person for the delivery of a 90kg item, the weight of which was indicated on the request for a quote form. Appalling service and an absolute nightmare to deal with. DO NOT use.......

Hello Julie,
We're sorry to hear that you feel this way. Unfortunately, the drivers are only required to deliver freight to the ground floor of any complex. All freight services through Transdirect are for a one-man team, anything more than this also comes with a higher cost. A 90kg item, should be booked on a pallet which can be moved by one person using a pallet jack or forklift.

Unresolved lost item issue

My wife consigned an item through transdirect for priority over night freight in late October. The item failed to update in the tracking and we had no contact about it. When we requested an update, we were advised that we needed to pay more and they were unsure where the item was. To get to this point it took another 2 to 3 weeks. It took until early December for them to confirm the item could not be located and for us to confirm the value of the item. We provided an approximate value and have heard nothing since. Their process for the rectification of issues is ham fisted to be diplomatic. Couple this with a lack of urgency in their customer service to follow an issue through to resolution and you end up with issues left unresolved for months on end. At no point has there been any attempt at contact via anything other than email. I will be recommending to all I speak to, to avoid transdirect at all costs.

Hello Evan,
We're sorry that your freight was lost in transit. The tracking is updated at each stage as it from the drivers and through depots. The process to deem freight lost is lengthy process and always a last resort when the freight cannot be located.
Most of our communication is via email unless there is an issue with the email address we have been provided.

We've used Transdirect a few times and always been happy with their low cost door to door service. Recent next day delivery from Pakenham to Frankston South just a day before Christmas was fantastic.
Thanks guys.

Don’t rely on Transdirect

Two non-collections for the same delivery in one week.
Transdirect don’t actually manage your delivery, they take your pre-payment and you need to follow up on everything yourself.
Even after lodging two tickets for the same delivery not being collected, there was no follow up or communication.
Transdirect make AusPost look reliable, which is saying something.

Hello J.F.
We're sorry to hear that your parcel as missed on multiple occasions. Unfortunately, if there is a missed collection you need to either call us or lodge a 'my item was not collected' ticket. We are not notified by the carrier when a booking is missed.

Hello Nicolas,
We're sorry to hear. A futile delivery is applied when the first delivery attempt was not successful, and the redelivery fee is applied when the initial attempt cannot be completed. All charges are outlined in the Terms and Conditions on our website - https://www.transdirect.com.au/terms-and-conditions

Cheaper and faster than posting!

Cheaper and faster than posting! I wanted to get a Christmas dress to my daughter overnight but couldn't face the long queues at the post office. I found Transdirect and to my amazement it cost less than 6 bucks to get it to her the next day. All I had to do was put the dress in an envelope, download the form and stick it on the envelope. The messenger picked it up within an hour and delivered it the next morning - it was cheaper and faster than the post office!

Awful

Awful. Courier agent don’t arrive in allotted (and paid for) service window. Took significant additional funds from account with no proof of weights. As useful as a chocolate teapot when I asked for evidence my booking was overweight. Pay a little extra and use someone with solid customer service.

Hello Gareth,
We're sorry that you feel this way. Unfortunately missed pick-ups are not ideal however they can occur. There are many factors that can cause a delay, most are beyond our control.
An under declared charge is applied when the freight is either larger or heavier than originally declared. On this occasion, the dimensions are larger.

Continuously had bad experiences with Transdirect. Either packages not been collected on time (have had to follow them up for 3 full business days before). Was charged under declared weight (not a problem) however was never contacted by Transdirect, they just sent it straight to a debt collector, if they had bothered to email or phone me directly I would've paid it straight away. Communication is terrible.

Hello Kerri.
We're sorry that you feel this way. Unfortunately missed pickups do occur and usually there is a reason behind it which is beyond our control. I understand that this is not ideal.
When an under declared charge is processed, there is always an email that follows unless it has been booked on a credit account. Sometimes these emails can end up in the junk/spam folder.

Hello John,
We're sorry that your customer has not received their parcel as yet. I have reviewed your booking and there has been no contact with us regarding this consignment. I can see that the delivery address booked was incorrect and had to be redirected to the correct address. This redirection is in place, and the ETA is 24 Dec 2025 to 29 Dec 2025.
