Freight & Transport Services in Tweed Heads

Tweed Heads sits right on the Queensland and New South Wales border, so close to Coolangatta that the two run together as one town split by a state line. That border position is exactly why freight into Tweed needs a carrier who crosses it without fuss. Road Linx Transport runs the border daily, delivering into Tweed Heads and the Tweed Valley as part of our Gold Coast and Northern NSW work.

For a business in Tweed, being on the far side of the border shouldn't mean slower or more complicated freight, and with us it doesn't.

Freight across the border

Plenty of Tweed's freight starts in Brisbane or on the Gold Coast, then crosses into New South Wales. Because we run that crossing constantly, it's just part of the trip. Your goods stay on one truck from the pickup in Queensland to the delivery in Tweed, with no depot transfer at the border to slow things down or add handling.

We carry the range Tweed needs, from palletised stock and trade materials to retail and hospitality deliveries. The town's steady construction and its busy tourist-driven retail both keep freight moving, and our utes through to semi-trailers cover whatever the load calls for.

Quick runs from the Gold Coast

Tweed Heads is only minutes from the Gold Coast's southern end, so we can turn around local cross-border deliveries fast. When a Tweed business needs stock from a coast or Brisbane supplier today, our same-day hot shot service runs a dedicated truck straight there, border and all.

Tail-lift and after-hours delivery

Tweed deliveries often land at shopfronts, cafes and fit-outs with no forklift, so our tail-lift trucks bring heavy freight down to ground level safely. And because the town's retail and hospitality can't always take stock during trade, we run early morning and after-hours drops so businesses are restocked before they open. Freight crosses the border restrained to rating on load-rated gear under Chain of Responsibility, with PODs on request.

Part of the Northern NSW corridor

Tweed Heads is the northern end of the Northern Rivers, and we treat it as one link in the wider corridor. From Tweed we run south to Ballina, Lismore and across the Northern NSW region, and north back to the Gold Coast, Brisbane and the Port. That means a business supplying customers up and down the border gets one carrier handling the whole stretch.

Areas we cover around Tweed Heads

We service Tweed Heads, Tweed Heads South, Banora Point, Kingscliff, Chinderah and the Tweed Valley, along with neighbouring Coolangatta just over the border. From here we connect north to the Gold Coast and Brisbane and south through Ballina and Lismore into the broader Northern NSW region.

One carrier for both sides of the border

Businesses around Tweed often trade on both sides of the border, selling into the Gold Coast in Queensland and servicing the Northern Rivers in New South Wales. Splitting that across two carriers, one for each state, just adds cost and confusion.

We run both sides, so your Queensland and New South Wales freight sits with one carrier who crosses the border as a matter of routine. That keeps your freight arrangements simple no matter which side of the line a delivery lands on.

Being minutes from the Gold Coast, Tweed gets some of our quickest cross-border turnarounds. A pickup on the southern coast can be over the border and delivered in Tweed the same day when timing is tight.

Tweed also sits right beside the Gold Coast Airport at Coolangatta, which matters when freight is genuinely time-critical or connecting with air movements. Being on the doorstep of both the border and the airport gives Tweed businesses fast options that towns further from the line simply don't have.
