General Freight

Reliable Transport, Without the Headaches

Why General Freight Still Matters

In a world obsessed with “specialised this” and “custom that,” there’s something quietly powerful about reliable, straightforward general freight. It’s the backbone of everyday business — moving goods that don’t need extra frills, just the right care and timing.

At Colt Logistics, we don’t treat general freight as second-tier. Whether it’s pallets of packaging, stacks of timber, or just a whole lot of something that needs to be somewhere — we move it like it matters. Because to you, it does.

Testimonials

What Our Clients Say

"I’ve worked with a few freight companies before Colt. Most of them overpromise and disappear when there’s an issue. Colt’s been solid so far. They turn up when they say they will and keep it simple. That’s really all I want."

— Sofia Papadakis

"I bring in goods through the port and getting them to our warehouse used to be a hassle. Since switching to Colt, it's been way smoother."

— Mark Phillips

"Colt Logistics stores and moves a lot of our stock. No mix-ups, no delays. They’re easy to deal with. Happy with them."

— Ming Wei

"We use Colt for a few different things, deliveries, warehouse storage, sometimes short notice stuff. Not everything has been 100% perfect, but they always fix issues quick and don’t give you the runaround. That matters more to me than fake perfection."

— Sofia Elyse

"Been dealing with Colt for about 8 months now. What I like is they actually listen. You don’t get the usual 'we’ll get back to you' and then silence. They pick up, they reply, they sort things. That’s rare lately. No complaints."

— Hassan Al-Farsi

"We move chilled goods regularly, so timing and temperature are non-negotiable. Colt’s been reliable so far and we haven’t had any issues. That’s what we were looking for."

— Aiden Tariq
