VIC - Melbourne High Winds Impacting Empty Parks & Depot Operations November 26 2025

Please be advised that strong wind conditions across Melbourne are impacting operations at several empty container parks, with some facilities now operating at reduced capacity or pausing operations intermittently to ensure staff and driver safety.

The full operational impact is still being assessed. While KLN will make every effort to dehire empty containers within free time, some units may need to be staged back to our yard (additional charges may apply).

Please note that KLN will not be liable for any detention resulting from weather-related closures.
