About Star Track Courier
Star Track is Australia’s largest courier and is owned by Australia Post. This essentially makes it a subsidiary of the Australian national carrier. This grants Star Track Courier an unrivaled distribution network in the domestic Australian market. Their services extend much beyond those of traditional carriers, with warehousing and 3PL solutions being offered. They also offer tailored services for B2B and B2C deliveries, including courier, next flight, and dedicated support options.
Star Track Courier was founded in 1974 in Sydney. It was subsequently completely acquired by Australia Post in 2012. Star Track went through a few rebranding exercises after this to assume its current form. Apart from road transport infrastructure, Star Track Courier also owns a dedicated fleet of 6 aircrafts. These aircraft are operated by Qantas, a former stakeholder in Star Track Courier.
Within the Australian market, Star Track offers delivery rescheduling and free pickup services. As usual, you can also track packages from their website using their API.
