Preparing for your container import

We will find out which wharf your ship will be docking at and arrange to collect your shipping container on your behalf. We will the necessary slot so that we can collect your container on time before any storage charges are incurred. We require various documents from you as an importing client so that we can complete the process correctly.
When you book your import collection with us we’ll ask you if there are any special instructions or requirements such as which way doors need to be facing when we deliver and unload your container at its destination and opening and closing hours.
If you don’t have the room at your site for a container we can deliver it to a temporary site so you can arrange it to be collected and transported to its final destination. Another option is our driver can wait at the drop off site until your team unpacks it, we’ll then take the container back to the shipping company for you.
If you need quarantine services we can assist. We are a QAP (Quarantine Approved Premise) 1.1 and 11.2 and have a quarantine section in our warehouse. We can provide tailgate inspections, fumigations, and quarantine washes where required by quarantine authorities. We have a designated field area for the purposes of fumigation. Fumigation is typically done on used machinery such as graders and tractors.
Whatever your situation, we can take care of the entire process for you. Just call or email our office any time between 6:00am and 4:00pm Monday to Friday.
Get Reliable Container Fumigation That Saves Your Business Time And Money
Having access to on-time container fumigation can help your business save time and money. Our expert team has a wide range of services that include biosecurity which is here to keep your containers safe and clean. Our team prioritise quality, so we will work closely with you to help find the best package that includes our different services.
The last thing any business wants is for authorities to issue fumigation. Choose DNV Transport to help eliminate this.
The Importance of Getting Container Tailgate Inspections
Biosecurity inspections are certainly not something every industry has to deal with, which often leads to few people truly understanding its importance. At DNV, we ensure that we explain the importance of these inspections so we can better prepare you for such an event and help you make informed decisions regarding the products you import or export.
We Eliminate Risks For Unwanted Pests And Contaminants
One of the most common ways this can happen is through unchecked shipping containers that have been loaded with them before coming to Australia. With DNV’s fumigation services, you can comfortably rely on us to kill any pests or contaminants before the products in the containers go anywhere else. Australia is on high alert from September – April as a number of overseas countries have issues with Brown Marmorated Stink Bugs (BMSB). Our thorough inspections will help you get your containers to their destination faster.
Minimise The Risk Of Stink Bugs During Biosecurity Targeted Seasons
During September – April, as temperatures drop and the day length shortens, brown marmorated stink bugs retreat to dark, warm areas. BMSB overwinter in buildings and homes, as well as in containers because they find these places to be suitable.
It Is Against The Law To Not Have Routine Inspections
Without them, the law prohibits you from removing containers off the wharf or quarantine depot. Our fumigations can play a vital role in making sure your containers arrive at their destination on time.
The last thing any business needs to for your shipping containers to be stopped at the harbour because the necessary inspections didn’t occur. If rules require you to fumigate your container, having access to a team that can do it for you makes the experience much easier. If you don’t, your container might end up staying in the wharf much longer than you can afford.
We Conduct Effective BMSB And Other Pest Fumigation
In order to manage an effective BMSB fumigation, goods must be presented in a manner that allows the heat or fumigant to reach all external and internal surfaces of the goods reachable to BMSB. To maximise your tailgate inspections or fumigation, we recommend you prepare your containers.
To help you better understand how you can do that, we have a few pointers that will assist you in maximising the efficiency of your container checks when it arrives.
1. As soon as you know the arrival date for the vessel carrying your container, give us a call and organise with our team to start preparations. We will then go through the necessary channels to find out which wharf your container will show up at and collect it on your behalf when it arrives.
2. Remember to mention any special instructions to us when we book your import collection. Without these instructions, we risk receiving your container in a way that could end up damaging your products. While we will always ask to make sure, it is best to consider it beforehand and have the necessary information ready.
3. Remember that we also have quarantine services available as a QAP (Quarantine Approved Premises). We have a quarantine section in our warehouse to store your goods safely for inspections, fumigations, and washes.
Our team knows how to suggest and provide the correct solutions to your container-related requirements. Whether you want us to pack, unpack, transport, or provide biosecurity-related services, we can do it.
