Our aim is to assist all importers, regardless of whether you ship occasionally or frequently. We strive to encourage efficient shipping practices and optimize container usage in New Zealand, ensuring that each shipment contributes to effectively matching your cargo with the most suitable space.

At Loadlast, we value efficiency and strive to minimize waste. Freight Forwarders often face time constraints to meet vessel deadlines, leading them to ship containers with unused space. Due to vessel pressures, Freight Forwarders are compelled to provide competitive rates and secure bookings instead of shipping containers with empty space.

In freight forwarding, Loadlast serves as an option for freight forwarders when they have remaining space in containers nearing vessel departure. They utilize Loadlast to fill this unused space with cargo before the vessel sails, preventing it from being shipped empty. Loadlast is aptly named because we specialize in matching your cargo with soon-to-expire container space, aligning with vessel deadlines.
