Introducing Direct Express – Australia.

DB Schenker’s ‘Direct Express – Australia’ offers just what its name implies – direct, expedited, scheduled 777-300 freighter service from Chicago to Sydney, Australia every Monday. No other freight forwarder provides faster freighter service from the Midwest to Australia making this service ideally suited for the automotive, industrial and pharmaceutical industries particularly where temperature controlled storage solutions are a must. We are electronically linked to Australian Customs offices which allows ‘wheels-up’ pre-clearance of shipments before the flight arrives at its destination. This allows for the fastest clearance and delivery possible. And with DB Schenker’s extensive Australia network, your shipments can be expedited for direct delivery to other major Australian markets, in most cases, by the next day. Full shipment visibility is available via eSchenker, our web-based portal that gives you the real-time information you need to follow-up your shipment from pickup to delivery – all with one single point of access.
