Advance Forwarding was formed in 1993 by Mike Bull and Steve Hodson with the aim of providing an international freight forwarding operation, with service levels that are second to none.

Our success has been confirmed by steady growth year on year, with over 20 staff currently assisting a customer base in excess of 300. The move to modern purpose-built premises on Melbourne’s Castle Lane Industrial Estate, has enabled the group to conveniently locate both the freight forwarding and packing company in one unit, as well as enabling a new archive and retrieval service to be introduced. We are one of the very few companies in the business to offer the whole range of freight, archive storage and packing services under one roof.

As an efficient freight forwarder we pride ourselves on offering a personal and professional service at competitive rates for the movement of freight to any destination worldwide by air, road, or sea.
