About Brisbane
Brisbane serves Queensland and is the closest major Australian container port to Asia, which shapes its service pattern more than the European trade does. The terminal sits at the mouth of the Brisbane River on reclaimed land, well clear of the city. It is the natural gateway for southeast Queensland and the mining supply chains inland.
First Base Freight handles both import and export cargo through Brisbane — inbound from any country and outbound to any country. Indicative sea transit on our the UK lane is 34–40 days; transit on any other routing is confirmed at quote stage. For rates, container options and the wider Australia lane, including air freight and customs clearance, see the country page — or request a quote for this port.
