Warehousing site at Port West Estate locked in for at least a decade
Port of Brisbane Pty Ltd (PBPL) has welcomed its newest tenant, Team Transport & Logistics (TTL), to the Port West Estate.
TTL signs a 10-year lease deal for a 1.22 hectare site in the industrial estate at Lytton.
The facility will comprise a 2,000 square metre warehouse; 630 sq m of awnings and 225 sq m of office space, as well as 4,430 sq m of dedicated hardstand and a 354sqm wash bay area.
TTL was established in 1981 and has since grown to a fleet of more than 250 vehicles including small taxi trucks to semi-trailers, crane trucks and heavy haulage vehicles, and offers wharf cartage, mining and industrial, project logistics and freight forwarding services.
“Team Transport & Logistics see our new port-based facility integral to the ongoing growth of the business,” TTL director Steve Skinner says.
“It will develop our infrastructure to better service our FCL and project customers.
“We consider the Port of Brisbane a long-term strategic partner in the delivery of our service to the industry.”

As is now standard in the port’s new property developments, the project will also work towards achieving a four-star, Green Star-equivalent design and will include sustainable design elements such as LED lighting, rainwater tanks, and a 100kW solar power system.
Port West continues to grow, with TTL to join six other global and national port-related businesses including Bunnings, Fisher & Paykel and Autocare at the estate.
Construction commenced end-2020 and is anticipated to be completed by mid-2021.
PBPL CEO Roy Cummins says the port’s ability to identify a greenfield site and deliver a turn-key development in a matter of months was a unique advantage.
“Our in-house team of planners, property development and infrastructure experts will continue to work closely with Team Transport & Logistics throughout the design and construction phases to deliver a bespoke facility that will support their operations now, and well into the future,” Cummins adds.
