If you need to move goods around New Zealand by truck and trailer, you can do it without the hassle of recruitment, without tying up capital and without risk.
We start by listening to you because our experience in transport has proved to us that pre-packaged solutions are definitely not for everyone - your solution will be unique to you.
We can supply both short and long-term solutions but either way we work hard to develop long-term relationships based on good communication, transparency and trust.
We are different in that we supply trucks with drivers and we look after everything from health & safety to the vehicle insurance.
We are new generation thinkers, not stuck in the transport past but focussed on how transport is evolving in this dynamic business environment.
Whatever your transport needs, we’re ready to listen and create your perfect, risk free solution. CALL US ON 0800 DRIVER for a down-to-earth conversation

Managing Director
Aaron has trucking - in fact some would say diesel - in his blood. He grew up around trucks and his knowledge and clear understanding might seem uncanny for someone of his relatively young years. He works like a man possessed and he will not stop until he has satisfied his clients’ needs. If it’s results your after, you don’t need to look past Aaron.

While there are truck rental companies operating successfully in NZ, no company has actually taken the lead by combining the unit with the driver as one package on hire. Tranzport Solutions Managing Director, Aaron Shackleton says it’s something new for transport operators and allows them to keep their own asset costs down while still providing an efficient and very cost effective logistics service to their customer base. Contingent liability now has to be shown on any companies balance sheet where they lease vehicles; this a way to refine that liability while still managing your transport company. It’s just a new and more flexible way of operating.
Aaron says Tranzport Solutions recently secured a five year contract with a major transport provider, moving chilled and frozen goods throughout the South Island and lower North Island.
Our 8-wheeler DAF tractor units are operating around the clock pulling our clients super quad trailers. What’s more, we offer full insurance and total peace of mind.
All enquires should go to Aaron Shackleton 0275340940 or email info@tranzportsolutions.nz to see if Tranzport Solutions works for your business.
