Neway Transport
Specialist sensitive freight carrier founded in 1985, operating purpose-built softride vehicles for oversized, fragile, and high-value goods across the Australian East Coast.
Visit websiteOverview
Neway Transport was founded in 1985 by Bruce Newey, following 15 years as General Manager of Grace Express, with the aim of establishing a quality transport and distribution service for high technology manufacturers and distributors. Success was immediate, and by 1987 Neway had grown into a national network. Today, Neway Holdings Pty Ltd operates as a privately owned network of independently owned licence holder companies, with operations in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Canberra, Adelaide, and Perth, and extended services through partners in Tasmania and the Northern Territory. The company is headquartered at Derby Street, Silverwater in Sydney’s west.
Key Capabilities
Sensitive and Specialist Freight
Neway specialises in the transport of oversized, fragile, heavy, and bulky freight that cannot travel on standard conveyor-based sortation systems. Their purpose-built vehicles feature softride suspension to protect sensitive cargo during transit. This includes premium furniture, medical equipment, large retail fit-out items, and irregular or non-machinable freight that demands human judgement at every handling point.
Premium White-Glove Delivery
Neway’s Premium Service provides two-person delivery and pickup with specialised handling equipment. The service extends beyond transport to include assembly, positioning, packaging removal, and cleaning of the delivery area. For complex operations, Neway provides logistic support including cranage, traffic control, Road Traffic Authority approvals, and site inspections, catering to items with specific installation and security requirements.
East Coast Express Network
Dedicated softride vehicles provide overnight services between adjoining capital cities and major regional centres, with an average East Coast transit time of approximately 29 hours. Regular services cover the full East Coast corridor including the Sunshine Coast, Brisbane, Gold Coast, Northern Rivers, Mid North Coast, Newcastle, Sydney, Wollongong, Canberra, Albury-Wodonga, Shepparton, Bendigo, Ballarat, Melbourne, Geelong, and the Mornington Peninsula.
Best Suited For
Neway Transport is well-suited for:
- Furniture retailers and manufacturers needing white-glove delivery with assembly
- Medical equipment suppliers requiring careful handling and installation
- High technology companies distributing sensitive hardware and infrastructure

- Companies that need two-person delivery teams with specialist handling capabilities
