PAGE Tasmanian Freight
Carrick-based freight operator with heritage dating to 1936, providing palletised and containerised freight services across Bass Strait and mainland Australia.
Visit websiteOverview
PAGE Tasmanian Freight operates from a strategically located hub at 315 Oaks Road, Carrick, situated between Launceston and Devonport in northern Tasmania. The PAGE name carries 88 years of Tasmanian transport heritage, with the Page Transport family having been active in the Bass Strait freight space since 1936. The modern PAGE Tasmanian Freight division was established in 2018 to consolidate and grow the interstate freight forwarding operations.
The company distinguishes itself through majority company-owned and operated assets, maintaining direct control over equipment and service quality rather than relying extensively on subcontractors. PAGE provides freight services from Tasmanian depots in Launceston, Hobart, and Devonport, connecting to mainland operations in Melbourne and Sydney.
PAGE handles a range of freight types including palletised cargo, full container loads, and tautliner loads for ambient goods. The Carrick facility serves as the primary consolidation and distribution hub, taking advantage of its central northern Tasmania location and proximity to both the Launceston and Devonport ports.
