Freight & Trade Alliance (FTA) has received advice from ACFS that all Port Botany Depots (ACFS e-Depot and ACFS e-Depot Link) will operate 24hrs Mon – Fri, in addition to now opening every Saturday and Sunday as normal course of business.
 
"ACFS facilities will provide access to empty depots for import dehires and export pick-ups, 7 days per week.
This unrivalled access to Empty Depots is a national first, with a key focus on providing industry access and efficiency.
 
ACFS e-Depots will continue to provide flexibility without penalties to transport operators, whilst maintaining a high volume of slot availability, and insuring timely processing of fleet within our facilities as we appropriately staff and equip our facilities for timely processing of vehicles.

We encourage industry to make the most of the operating hours on weeknights, in addition to the new weekend shifts. Solid support will insure their ongoing viability.
