Domestic Freight New Zealand & Australia.

Whilst we can absolutely move your freight to anywhere in New Zealand, Australia, or indeed the world, naturally some places are easier to get to than others. One of the major benefits of partnering with Applied Logistics is that we have a passion for delivering to unusual places.

We offer fully managed solutions so that all you need to do is call us to arrange pickup and delivery of your goods, then settle the account when it’s all done. There is often a faster, more cost-effective or more efficient way to transport items than might at first be obvious. Simply tell us what’s important to you and we’ll have the solution to fit.

Rail Freight.

Rail has long been a cornerstone of Applied Logistics’ suite of services. We love that rail is economical, efficient and environmentally responsible. Rail is also secure, smooth and reliable.

Rail is best suited to general freight through consolidators (or forwarders) or full loads over longer distances.

Linehaul rail operators (such as Aurizon) only accept loaded shipping containers. Applied Logistics is able to provide you with a full service, including road cartage and both standard and specialised shipping containers to handle your freight.

Call us to discuss how we can utilise rail to make your supply chain more efficient and effective today!

Rail has certain limitations when it comes to large items. Typically, we are limited to 13.7m in length, 2.5m in width and 2.6m in height – although this does depend on a lot of factors. Typically rail is inefficient for moving cars and small items.

Freight trains no longer stops at all stations. It is also not possible to place freight on passenger trains, nor collect from stations. General freight is accepted as whole container loads only. If you have significant volumes, we can arrange regular services to operate or stop for you.

Coastal Shipping.

Development of the interstate railway network and highways has contributed to the demise of coastal shipping in Australia & New Zealand. However, options are still available where it is essential, or where there is sufficient demand.

Coastal shipping should be considered when you have constant flows of freight and transit time is of a lesser concern. Heavy freight also benefits from containerised coastal shipping, because the shipping line doesn’t charge extra for weight.

 

We recommend coastal shipping for the movement of heavy or large machinery – although, forward planning will help reduce the overall transit time.
