Freight forwarding in New Zealand, handled by people you know.
As an independent freight forwarding company, we are not tied to a global franchise or its branch network. We choose the best agent for every shipment, anywhere in the world, so you get the result you need: lower cost, faster transit, or the right balance of both.
Talk to a real person, not a call centre.

Small enough to care, connected worldwide.
Large multinational freight forwarding companies usually send your freight through their own branches and agents, whether or not they are the best fit for the job. Sneddens has no branch-to-branch obligations. Through our GFP and GLA network partners we can use trusted agents around the world and pick the right one for each shipment.
That flexibility means your priorities come first, whether that is saving money, saving time, or anything in between.
From a single parcel to a fleet of cars, our freight forwarding team handles the booking, the paperwork and the clearance. Whether you are a small business or a multinational, Sneddens is the freight forwarder that compares air freight and sea freight options for every shipment and looks after customs clearance from start to finish.
