What MachShip is
MachShip is cloud-based freight management software that centralises work across multiple transport carriers. It is designed for wholesalers, retailers, 3PLs and 4PLs that want one consistent freight process and a clearer view across their carrier network.
MachShip isn’t a freight broker. Customers bring their own carrier accounts, rates and contracts to the platform.
What MachShip can manage
- Carrier pricing and service selection
- Consignment creation
- Carrier-compliant labels
- Manifesting
- Tracking and delivery status
- Freight automation
- Carrier performance reporting
- Carrier invoice reconciliation and overcharge identification
- One integration point across supported carriers
Why use MachShip
- The business already has negotiated accounts with several carriers
- Staff currently use multiple carrier portals
- Different warehouses follow inconsistent freight processes
- The business needs clearer tracking across carriers
- Freight invoice errors and surcharges are difficult to reconcile
- The operation needs to scale without building and maintaining every carrier integration itself
Where MachShip operates
MachShip was founded, built and is operated from Melbourne, Australia. Its office is at 115 Cremorne Street, Cremorne, Victoria.
The platform supports freight operations in Australia and New Zealand through a broad network of carrier integrations. Exact carrier capability varies by carrier and country.

MachShip or BigPost?
Choose MachShip
When the business has its own carrier contracts and wants one freight management layer across them.
Choose BigPost
When the business wants access to a freight provider's carrier network, rates and combined buying power.
A business may use both. MachShip can manage direct carrier relationships while BigPost provides another freight option for shipments where its network or rates are a better fit.
