Medical Equipment Transportation & Logistics Management Company
Smarter Freight have been delivering expert freight broker transportation services for over 30 years. We are one of Australia’s top freight companies, working with established freight carriers. We have a deep network of logistics providers, extensive experience in negotiating with freight carriers, and a strong focus on new technologies.
After working with many medical companies, we recognised the need for a more specialised offering for medical freight, with a strong focus on safety and transport security. We appreciated that a medical logistics company can be transporting extremely high value or sensitive goods, and there was a need for a premium, high service, medical freight solution.
As a result, we have a developed a specific offering for medical logistics management. This offering recognises the specific needs that pharmaceutical and medical companies have with respect to their freight, and provides our customers with the peace of mind that their sensitive and high value goods are in safe hands. We work with a select number of premium freight companies, all of whom integrate with our leading edge technology. This ensures, amongst other things, there is complete transparency within the supply chain, and you have full visibility, and track and trace of your goods wherever they are.

An example of one of our medical equipment logistics customers is a well known medical diagnostics tool company. This company has a requirement to send high value, bulky medical devices across Australia on a regular basis. Service was of the utmost importance to this customer, as the equipment is extremely expensive and fragile. As a result, the solution we have implemented involves 2 different medical equipment transportation providers, one whom is specialised in the East Coast lanes and Tasmanian freight, the other specialised in Melbourne to Perth freight. The solution has improved KPI’s by 30% and reduced freight costs by 10% overall, resulting in a very happy medical logistics customer.
As a medical logistics company we are excited to work with our customers to develop an optimal freight solution specific to their requirements. Call us today on 1800 621 036 to discuss your requirements and how we can help you with your freight management.
