FCL, LCL, and air freight between the U.S. and Australia or New Zealand,
through the Ports of LA and Long Beach. One coordinator, dock to door on both sides.


Oceania trade runs the longest ocean lanes in the Pacific, and it runs both directions. Australian and New Zealand exporters ship beef, lamb, wine, and dairy to American buyers, and U.S. manufacturers ship machinery and equipment back. Most of it moves through Southern California, which makes the LA end of the lane the operational one.
AEEM Shipping is a licensed freight forwarder (FF# 65907) headquartered at that end. Imports from Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Auckland, and Tauranga land at LA and Long Beach where our drayage runs same-day, exports get booked onto the sailings that fit your dates, and TSA/IAC certified air freight covers both directions in 3 to 5 days when the water is too slow. Reefer capacity holds the cold chain on the food lanes this trade is built on.
AEEM Shipping provides freight brokerage across all nine western states — Washington, Oregon, California, Nevada, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, and Utah — with trucking, drayage, intermodal, and warehousing dispatched port-to-door from Los Angeles.

AEEM Shipping is a licensed freight forwarder and FMCSA-authorized broker headquartered in Los Angeles County (FF# 65907, MC# 1672315, DOT# 4295954), TSA/IAC certified for air cargo. We work with origin agents in Australia and New Zealand's major hubs and run the U.S. side ourselves: same-day drayage at LA and Long Beach, Inland Empire transloading, and trucking to all 48 contiguous states.
Sydney and Melbourne run roughly 16 to 22 days on the water to Los Angeles, Auckland and Tauranga similar depending on service. Reefer freight rules this trade, beef, lamb, dairy, and wine northbound, and a temperature excursion or an agriculture hold at the port costs real money, so cold chain and clearance get planned before the vessel sails, not after it docks. Exports southbound book onto the same services, and air freight covers both directions in 3 to 5 days when a date cannot move.

Straight answers on transpacific ocean, air, and reefer freight.
Sydney and Melbourne run roughly 16 to 22 days on the water to Los Angeles, with New Zealand origins in a similar range. Add origin handling, customs clearance, and inland delivery for door-to-door time, which we quote in full. Air freight covers the lane in 3 to 5 days.
Yes, and it is what this trade runs on. Beef, lamb, dairy, and wine move in reefer containers with the cold chain held from origin through U.S. delivery, and clearance planned ahead so food freight is not sitting warm at the port
Yes. Machinery, equipment, and commercial freight book onto the same southbound services, with pickup anywhere in the U.S., export documentation handled, and delivery coordination on the Australian or New Zealand side.
That is our home turf. We track the vessel before it docks, book terminal pickup inside free time, and dispatch same-day drayage to your warehouse or our Inland Empire transload. Demurrage is avoidable when the arrival plan exists before arrival.
