MTF are very responsive, well priced & a pleasure to deal with. They really are on the customer’s side. I’ve successfully imported all kinds of building materials with them over the last year or so, they always take the stress out of import paperwork & keep my products moving through the system as fast as possible.
The team at MTF have provided my company with a great service for many years. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Highly recommended!
These Guys are great which is rare in the freight business, excellent customer service they go above and beyond to deliver.
We engaged MTF Melbourne to handle our imports and redeliveries after our existing provider deemed our specialised goods too difficult for them to handle. MTF have been nothing short of fantastic to deal with, from the admin & sales staff, through to the logistics team, everybody is a pleasure to deal with, friendly and efficient, and make the entire process a breeze, all at reasonable rates.
