Services

Built for building materials

General freight companies treat a pack of trusses like a pallet of paper. We don't. Every service is shaped around how building materials actually move: long loads, heavy loads, live sites, tight windows.

Crane truck site deliveries

Steel, timber, panels, packs and pallets lifted and placed exactly where the site needs them. Experienced building-material operators who know slabs, scaffold and safe work zones.

HIAB / CRANESITE PLACEMENTMETRO + REGIONAL

Interstate freight

Full loads, part loads and pallets moved between every state and territory through our national linehaul network, with door-to-door visibility the whole way.

FTL / LTLALL STATESLIVE TRACKING

General & box freight

Cartons, satchels and the odd awkward item. The random jobs that don't fit anyone's standard rate card. Quoted instantly and moved without fuss.

Technology

The platform behind every delivery

Behind every Shiplift delivery is a platform built for the trade: instant quoting, live statuses, digital proof of delivery, and connections to the programs you already run.

The Shiplift Portal

Every booking, every status, every document in one place. Log in from the office or the ute.

  • Instant quotes on any job, saved and reusable. No phone-around, no waiting on callbacks.
  • Live delivery statuses from booked to on-board to delivered, updated as the job moves.
  • Photo proof of delivery captured on site and attached to every consignment.
  • Booking history & documents. Quotes, consignments and invoices, searchable and exportable.
  • Multi-user accounts so your sales counter, despatch and accounts teams each see what they need.

Connect the programs you already use

No new software to learn. Shiplift connects to your accounting and ordering programs, so freight gets quoted on your orders automatically, our invoices land straight in your books, and delivery updates show up where you already work. No double entry, no re-keying.

For Suppliers & Resellers

Your freight department, without the fleet

Shiplift exists for the trade supply chain: resellers, hardware stores and building material suppliers who need deliveries to run like clockwork but don't want to run trucks. We're a long-term logistics partner, not a booking website.

Sell delivered, everywhere

Quote delivered pricing to any postcode in Australia the moment your customer asks. Win jobs you'd previously have turned away for freight reasons.

Plug into your ordering

Integrate Shiplift into your ordering platform or portal and every order gets freight quoted automatically. No manual bookings, no double handling.

One partner, one invoice

Consolidate the carrier patchwork. Every delivery lands on a single Shiplift account, and the invoices sync straight into Xero or MYOB, reconciled against their consignments.
