Tamex Transport shipping and tracking

Tamex Transport is an Australian owned express carrier for essential parts and pharmaceuticals, servicing New South Wales, southern Queensland and northern Victoria. FreightExchange gives your team one screen to quote, book and track it, alongside every other carrier on your account.

Ship Tamex Transport straight from your ERP or online store.

Most Tamex consignments start life as an order that already exists in another system. FreightExchange connects to your ERP, CRM or online store and builds the consignment from that order, so the rate, the label and the manifest happen in one step instead of three.

Use your own Tamex account, or ours.

There are two ways to ship Tamex through FreightExchange. Bring your own account, which needs a FreightExchange subscription and keeps the rates you have already negotiated with the carrier. Or book on our broker rates, which is worth doing when they beat what you are paying now. Booking, labels and tracking work the same either way.

When to use Tamex Transport

Use Tamex when a part has to be there next morning in regional New South Wales or southern Queensland. It is an overnight express parts carrier rather than a general pallet network, and that is the point of it.

Tamex is Australian owned, founded in Tamworth in 1991, and runs six branches at Tamworth, Sydney, Brisbane, Newcastle, Moree and Wagga Wagga. It covers New South Wales, southern Queensland and northern Victoria, with Toowoomba served overnight from Sydney, Tamworth, Newcastle and Brisbane. It publishes a minimum standard of 99 percent or better delivered in full on time.

What Tamex carries

Tamex is built around essential parts and pharmaceuticals. Its regular customers are suppliers in the pharmaceutical, construction, agricultural, mining, earthmoving and automotive sectors.

That makes it a strong fit when a machine is down and the replacement part decides whether a site runs tomorrow, or when medical, dental and veterinary supplies have to arrive on time.

Tamex states that casual customers and oversized freight can be accommodated but may see a different level of service. If oversized is your normal freight, this is not the carrier for it.

Frequently asked questions

Will the warehouse staff use a separate system provided by Tamex or FreightExchange?

The default Tamex Transport integration lets anyone in your business get quotes, make bookings and track shipments inside FreightExchange, for Tamex and for the other carriers on your account. Your warehouse team does not need a second system.

How is shipping documentation created and managed?

Shipping documentation like labels and manifests can all be generated through FreightExchange instantly upon creating a booking. All documents from Tamex can then be emailed or pushed to your system via easy and free integrations.

How do bespoke business rules work with Tamex?

FreightExchange has a powerful business rules engine that lets you decide which carrier and service to use in different shipping scenarios. You can also bypass those rules and send a consignment to Tamex Transport directly.

Can FreightExchange be configured to cater our bespoke use case?

One of our differentiators is our modern and open, RESTful API. Using the latest and greatest technology while also being constructed in a framework using REST allows FreightExchange to be a flexible and extensible tool that is highly configurable for Tamex or any other courier that can talk to web services.
