At Transport Works, we don’t just shift pallets - we shift entire business outcomes.

While most logistics companies are stuck playing the same old game - price wars, one-size-fits-all services, “just another shipment” mentality - we’re over here rewriting the playbook. Why? Because we’re not a 3PL. We’re a 4PL logistics facilitator, and that changes everything.

Here’s how we break away from the pack:

• We think ecosystem, not transactions Most providers focus on moving this truck or that container. We step back, zoom out, and optimise your entire supply chain — from multimodal transport to inventory flows, sustainability, cost controls, and performance tracking. We don’t just make deliveries — we make your operations run smarter.
  

• Smart tech meets sharp minds With cutting-edge Transport Management Software (TMS), Warehouse Management Systems (WMS), and real-time KPI dashboards, we give you radical visibility. But tech is nothing without human brains. Our team doesn’t hide behind systems - we’re constantly fine-tuning, problem-solving, and improving performance at every stage.
  

• Tailored solutions, not cookie-cutter packages Every client is different, and we treat them that way. Whether you’re an eCommerce brand scaling fast, a manufacturer wrangling complex supply lines, or a 3PL partner needing backup muscle - we design solutions around your needs, not our sales targets.
  

• Sustainability built into the blueprint We don’t slap on green labels for marketing points. From route optimisation and carrier selection to warehouse energy efficiency, sustainability is woven into how we work. That helps you hit your ESG targets - and save money while doing it.
  

• Human-level service, global-level reach Big enough to handle cross-border, multimodal networks across New Zealand, Australia, and the USA - small enough to actually care. When you work with us, you’re not just an account number. You’re a partner.

💥 We’re not just moving your freight - we’re moving your business forward. That’s why brands who work with us stay with us.

Transport Works. Always Delivering. With brains, muscle, and a little attitude.

Because after years in the logistics trenches, Danyul Gleeson was done watching businesses bleed money, time, and sanity over problems that were 100% fixable.

Before Transport Works, Danyul had seen it all - warehouse black holes, late trucks, lost shipments, useless dashboards, and supply chain partners who ghosted when things got hard. He kept hearing the same exhausted stories from businesses across New Zealand, Australia, and the USA:

“We’re paying more but getting less.” “Our 3PL can’t keep up with our growth.” “We have no idea what’s happening between order and delivery.” “Our sustainability goals are just sitting on a whiteboard.”

For Danyul, that wasn’t just frustrating - it was fuel.

He knew that companies didn’t just need another freight broker or warehouse contract. They needed a logistics facilitator: someone who would take ownership across the ENTIRE supply chain, break down silos, integrate tech, wrangle data, manage vendors, and turn chaos into control.

So, in came Transport Works - a company built to:

• Help businesses scale with confidence (no more duct-taped supply chains).

• Deliver real-time visibility with smart tools and actual human support.

• Cut costs not by squeezing providers, but by eliminating waste and inefficiency.

• Make sustainability practical, measurable, and profitable.

💥 Danyul didn’t just build Transport Works to move freight - he built it to move the industry forward. And today, businesses from scrappy startups to major brands partner with us because we bring what others don’t:

Brains, backbone, and the guts to call out what’s broken - and fix it.

At Transport Works, we work with businesses that are ready to break up with supply chain headaches and level up their logistics game.

We don’t play favourites based on size or industry - we care about fit, ambition, and impact. Whether you’re a local New Zealand business or a global player moving goods across Australia and the USA, we plug in as the logistics backbone you didn’t know you needed.

Here’s who we help:

• Scaling brands You’re growing fast, your customer expectations are rising, and your old supply chain setup can’t keep up. We step in to build smarter, scalable solutions so you can expand without breaking things.

• Overworked warehouses You’ve got pallets stacked to the ceiling, staff juggling a million tasks, and no time to fix the systems causing bottlenecks. We bring tech, strategy, and hands-on support to make your warehouse flow.

• 3PL providers ready to level up Even the best 3PLs hit their limits. We help you plug into a bigger ecosystem, optimise operations, and offer value-added services that keep your clients loyal.

• Manufacturers and industrial players Raw materials, complex transport needs, production timelines - we handle the heavy lifting so you can focus on building products, not chasing freight.

• Retailers and eCommerce companies Fast fulfilment, last-mile delivery, seamless returns - we help you win customers with logistics that match your brand promise.

• Healthcare, FMCG, and tech industries When precision, speed, or compliance is critical, we design supply chains that perform under pressure.
  

We partner with businesses that want more than a shipment booking service - they want a logistics facilitator that can see the big picture, solve problems, and drive real results.

At Transport Works, calling ourselves a 4PL logistics facilitator isn’t just fancy branding - it’s the core of what sets us apart.

Most companies work with a 3PL (third-party logistics) provider who handles specific tasks like warehousing. A 4PL logistics facilitator goes far beyond that. We connect, manage, and optimise your entire supply chain ecosystem so all the pieces work together - not against each other.

Here’s what that actually looks like:

• We manage the managers Instead of you juggling separate carriers, warehouses, customs brokers, and tech providers, we take the wheel. We coordinate all the players, ensuring performance, alignment, and accountability across every link in your supply chain.

• We integrate tech + data With advanced transport management software (TMS), warehouse management systems (WMS), and ERP integrations, we break down data silos and give you one clear view of what’s happening - in real time.

• We drive strategy, not just transactions We’re not here to book one truck or one shipment. We look at your entire logistics landscape, find where it’s leaking time, money, or efficiency, and design solutions that make it stronger and more competitive.

• We bring flexibility and scalability As your business grows or shifts, we adapt. Whether you’re expanding into new markets, launching new products, or riding out peak season, we make sure your logistics can keep up.

• We embed sustainability We don’t wait for you to ask about greener options - we actively optimise routes, consolidate loads, and work with sustainable partners to help you reduce emissions and waste.
  

In short, being a logistics facilitator means we’re your supply chain architect, operator, and performance partner - not just your vendor.

At Transport Works, sustainability isn’t a marketing slogan or a side project - it’s hardwired into how we operate.

We believe smarter supply chains aren’t just faster or cheaper - they’re also cleaner, leaner, and future-ready. That’s why we embed sustainability at every level of our services, helping clients reduce their environmental impact while improving operational performance.

Here’s how we make it happen:

• Smarter route optimisation We use advanced transport management software (TMS) to design routes that reduce fuel burn, cut empty miles, and avoid unnecessary detours. Fewer trucks on the road means lower emissions and lower costs.

• Sustainable warehousing practices We partner with warehouses that use energy-efficient lighting, smart temperature controls, and waste reduction programs. Optimising warehouse operations means cutting energy use without sacrificing speed or accuracy.

• Carbon tracking and reporting We don’t just say “we’re greener” - we show you the data. Our clients get real-time visibility into carbon outputs, giving them the power to measure, report, and improve their environmental performance.

• Consolidation and load efficiency Shipping half-empty trucks? Not on our watch. We optimise loads and consolidate shipments wherever possible, reducing the number of vehicles needed and maximising every journey.

• Partnerships with greener carriers We work with transport partners who share our commitment to sustainable logistics, from adopting alternative fuels to investing in electric fleets.

Why does this matter? Because sustainability isn’t just good for the planet - it’s good for your business.

Better efficiency, stronger brand reputation, and alignment with customer and investor expectations all come from embedding sustainability into your supply chain.

At Transport Works, we’re big believers that sustainability isn’t just about doing good for the planet - it’s about doing better for your business.

Sustainable logistics helps companies reduce costs and boost efficiency not by adding fluff - but by cutting waste, optimising operations, and uncovering new value streams. It’s smart business, plain and simple.

Here’s how we make that magic happen:

• Optimised transport routes We use advanced Transport Management Software (TMS) to design the most efficient delivery routes — cutting down fuel use, labour time, and unnecessary detours. Fewer kilometres, fewer vehicles, less spend.

• Load consolidation + capacity utilisation Shipping half-empty trucks? That’s money (and carbon) wasted. We consolidate shipments and maximise load capacities, reducing the number of trips needed and increasing overall efficiency.

• Smarter warehousing operations Sustainable practices like LED lighting, automated systems, and energy-efficient equipment don’t just shrink your environmental footprint - they also cut energy bills, improve pick-pack rates, and reduce errors.

• Reduced packaging waste By designing smarter packaging solutions, we help businesses cut material costs, reduce shipment weight, and lower waste disposal expenses.

• Predictive analytics + demand planning Using data-driven insights, we help you forecast demand more accurately, reducing overproduction, underutilised inventory, and last-minute expensive fixes.

• Better brand reputation + customer loyalty Let’s not forget the marketing edge. Customers increasingly care about sustainability - and companies that can prove they’re shipping smarter win more loyalty, partnerships, and sales.

The result? Lower operating costs, streamlined processes, improved performance metrics, and a supply chain that’s future-ready - not stuck in the past.

Last-mile delivery is the final leg of the supply chain journey - the moment your product goes from a distribution hub, warehouse, or local depot directly to your customer’s door.

It’s called “last mile,” but don’t let the name fool you - this stage is often the longest, messiest, most expensive, and most customer-visible part of the entire logistics process.

Here’s why last-mile delivery matters so much for businesses:

• It shapes the customer experience You can have the best product, marketing, and brand - but if your delivery is late, sloppy, or unreliable, customers remember that, not the unboxing moment. Fast, accurate, transparent delivery = loyal, happy customers.

• It drives competitive advantage In an age where next-day (or even same-day) delivery is the norm, businesses that master last-mile delivery stand out. It’s not just logistics — it’s a brand differentiator.

• It’s where costs explode or shrink Last-mile delivery typically accounts for over 50% of total shipping costs (source: Capgemini). Fuel, labour, traffic, routing inefficiencies, and failed delivery attempts all stack up fast - unless you have smart systems in place to control them.

• It’s complex and unpredictable From urban congestion and narrow delivery windows to rural drop-offs and customer no-shows, last-mile delivery is filled with real-world variables. Managing it well takes tech, agility, and sharp execution.

• It impacts sustainability goals Fewer failed deliveries, better route optimisation, and smarter vehicle use all help reduce carbon emissions - which matters for businesses trying to hit their sustainability targets.

At Transport Works, we don’t treat last-mile as an afterthought - we treat it as a mission-critical operation. With advanced last-mile solutions, we help businesses:

• Optimise delivery routes

• Track deliveries in real time

• Improve on-time rates

• Cut failed deliveries

• Enhance customer satisfaction

KPI reporting (Key Performance Indicator reporting) is the process of tracking, measuring, and analysing critical metrics across your supply chain - and turning that data into actionable insights.

At Transport Works, we treat KPI reporting as a non-negotiable performance weapon, not an optional extra. Why? Because you can’t fix what you can’t see - and in logistics, what you can’t see is usually what’s draining your time, money, and sanity.

Here’s how KPI reporting works and why it’s a game-changer:

• Real-time visibility With advanced KPI dashboards, we track everything from on-time delivery rates and inventory accuracy to transportation costs and warehouse throughput - live, not six weeks after month-end.

• Proactive problem-solving Instead of waiting for issues to snowball, KPI reporting lets you spot red flags early - missed SLAs, rising costs, late shipments - so you can take corrective action before they hit your bottom line.

• Performance benchmarking We don’t just measure your operations against past performance - we benchmark you against industry standards, carrier metrics, and best practices, helping you see where you stand and how to improve.

• Cost reduction + efficiency gains By identifying underperforming carriers, inefficient routes, bottlenecks, or wasteful processes, KPI reporting helps you optimise operations, reduce spend, and improve speed without sacrificing quality.

• Better decision-making Data-driven insights help you make smarter strategic calls - from negotiating better contracts to scaling up operations or investing in new tech.

• Stronger customer experience Improved performance translates directly to happier customers - faster deliveries, fewer errors, and clearer communication.

In short, KPI reporting transforms logistics from a black box of “we think it’s fine” into a transparent, optimised, high-performance machine.

Cross-docking is a logistics strategy where inbound goods are unloaded from trucks, ships, or trains and immediately loaded onto outbound vehicles - with little or no storage time in between.

Think of it as a high-speed relay race: products come in one door, get sorted or consolidated, and race straight out another door to their next destination.

Here’s how it works and why it’s a game-changer for logistics efficiency:

• Reduced warehousing needs Traditional logistics often involves storing goods in a warehouse until they’re needed, which racks up storage costs, labour time, and inventory management headaches. With cross-docking, goods skip the warehouse entirely or spend minimal time on-site - cutting down costs and space requirements.

• Faster delivery speeds By eliminating the storage step, cross-docking accelerates the movement of goods through the supply chain. That means faster deliveries to customers, stores, or distribution points - and in today’s fast-paced market, speed is everything.

• Lower handling costs and risk Fewer touches mean fewer chances for damage, misplacement, or errors. Less handling also reduces labour costs and improves order accuracy.

• Optimised transportation Cross-docking allows businesses to consolidate shipments from multiple suppliers into full truckloads heading to the same region or customer base. This boosts vehicle utilisation, reduces empty miles, and improves overall transportation efficiency.

• Better inventory management With cross-docking, inventory spends less time sitting and more time moving. This leads to leaner operations, less capital tied up in stock, and faster response to changing demand.

At Transport Works, we use cross-docking strategies to help clients:

• Cut warehouse costs

• Improve delivery times

• Boost supply chain agility

• Reduce carbon emissions through smarter transport

Cross-docking isn’t just about speed - it’s about building a supply chain that’s lean, fast, and fiercely competitive.
