Freight and logistics across New Zealand. Locally owned, nationally connected, for over 25 years.
Full and part-load freight services across the South Island and nationwide. Whether it's a single pallet or a full truck, we handle it all — from first mile to last. Our fleet runs daily across Marlborough and Nelson, delivering to residential and commercial addresses with the care and reliability our customers have come to expect. No missed deliveries, no runaround — just your goods, where they need to be, on time.
Our chiller truck runs a daily produce circuit between Nelson and Blenheim, six days a week. Fruit, vegetables, chilled food — picked up in the morning, delivered the same day. For anything beyond our core route, we coordinate through our refrigerated carrier partners.
Secure warehousing and distribution from our Riverlands depot in Blenheim. Short-term holding, long-term storage, and pick-and-pack fulfilment — all under one roof. Your goods are safe, organised, and ready to move when you are.
Through our extensive carrier partnerships, we connect Blenheim to every corner of New Zealand. You make one call and we coordinate the rest — from pickup to linehaul to final delivery. Not every job fits in a box either. Oversized loads, time-critical deliveries, specialised handling — we work with you to build a solution that fits. If it needs moving, we'll figure out how. That's been our approach for over 25 years.

We've invested in technology that gives you full control and complete transparency over every consignment — from booking to doorstep.
Real-time fleet visibility across every truck, every route. Know exactly where your freight is at any moment.
Customers receive automatic status updates and accurate delivery windows — no chasing, no wondering.
Digital signatures, photos, GPS-stamped PODs — all captured at the door and available instantly.
Our drivers run a purpose-built mobile app for route management, real-time updates, and instant POD capture.
DIFOT tracking, delivery times, exception reporting — full visibility over how your freight is performing.
Automated tracking links sent direct to your customers. They see their delivery queue position, driver location, and ETA.
Every consignment tracked end-to-end. Timeline events, electronic PODs with photos and signatures, GPS coordinates — all captured automatically and available the moment it happens.
Automated tracking links show your customers exactly where their delivery is, their position in the queue, and a live map. No phone calls, no “where's my order” — just transparency.
“It's worth reiterating that Tane is an EXCELLENT delivery guy. He's always friendly, and he's always considerate and professional. It's freezing outside but he still took the extra time to make sure our stock was undamaged before he finished the delivery. Genuinely incredible service, very thankful.”
“Our business Stihl Shop Blenheim heavily relies on MD Freight and in particular our regular friendly driver Tane. Always quick and efficient and prioritises our stock. Love your work Tane!”
“We love Warren! Best delivery guy out. He delivers our Lion Nathan order to the restaurant every Friday, always smiling, happy and efficient. Thanks MD FREIGHT, we appreciate your amazing team.”
“We were told from another company that it could be delivered for another week, so called MD's last minute to see how fast they could get it to us and it was collected and delivered within the day. Great fast delivery from the team at MD Freighting.”
