Where is the Ateam Logistics warehouse?

Ateam Logistics runs two Sydney sites. Botany, at Unit C2/11-13 Lord Street, sits inside the Port Botany and airport freight precinct, so imported containers and air freight are received, unpacked and inspected the day they land. Warehousing, distribution and storage run from our warehouse, and Epping in Melbourne does both.

Do you offer 3PL for furniture and homewares brands?

Yes. Ateam Logistics provides third-party logistics for furniture, lighting, art and homewares brands: receiving and inspecting inbound containers, holding stock in a monitored facility, and picking, packing and dispatching to customers, showrooms or sites nationally.

Can you hold project stock until an install date?

Yes. Consolidation is one of the main reasons designers use the Ateam Logistics facility: stock arriving over weeks from different suppliers is received, checked and held in our warehouse, then released as a single delivery to the install date rather than six part-deliveries onto a site that is not ready for them.

Do you distribute interstate from Sydney?

Yes. Ateam Logistics runs three warehouses, two in Sydney and one in Melbourne, and distributes between them as consolidated linehaul legs with specialist handling on the final delivery. Moving one load rather than a series of trips means each piece is handled fewer times.

Service

Warehousing & Distribution

Third-party logistics for luxury inventory and construction elements: secure receiving, pick and pack, staged release to site, and outbound distribution from a monitored facility.

Received, checked, racked.

Inbound freight is counted against the packing list and inspected on arrival, so a discrepancy is raised with your supplier while it can still be resolved.

What it is

Warehousing and distribution is third-party logistics for stock that cannot be treated as stock. A scuffed carton on luxury inventory is a markdown, and an item damaged in a rack is not replaceable at short notice when the lead time from Italy is fourteen weeks. Ateam Logistics receives, holds and dispatches it from monitored facilities at Moorebank in Sydney and Epping in Melbourne.

Receiving is the part most operators skip, and it is the part that decides everything after it. Inbound containers and freight are unloaded and checked against the packing list on arrival, and damage is photographed before the item is put away rather than discovered at pick. A discrepancy found on the day of receipt is a conversation with your supplier, held while the evidence is still on the dock.

Stock is racked by SKU or by project, depending on which way you actually work: a retailer wants to know how many of an item are on hand, while a designer wants everything for one residence in one place, arriving complete. Outbound then runs as pick and pack to a customer, as consolidated project stock released to an install date, or as a distribution leg to Melbourne.

Imports land at Port Botany and Sydney Airport, and Ateam Logistics receives them itself rather than passing them through a general freight yard first. Containers are unpacked, inspected and racked in our warehouse by the same operation that will later pick and deliver them, so the piece is handled by people who answer for it at every step. Every extra handling event is an extra chance to damage something.

How a job runs

01
Receiving and inspection
Containers and inbound freight unloaded, counted against the packing list, and inspected. Damage is photographed on arrival and reported to you the same day, while it is still the supplier's problem.
02
Racked by SKU or by project
Stored the way you work, by line for retail inventory, or consolidated per residence or per fit-out where a designer needs everything to arrive complete.
03
Inventory visible on request
What is held, in what condition, and what has moved. Stock you cannot see is stock you will over-order.
04
Consolidation ahead of an install
Project stock arriving over weeks is held and released as one delivery to the install date, so a fit-out isn't six part-deliveries into a site that isn't ready.
05
Pick, pack and dispatch
Outbound to a customer, a showroom or a site: kept in specialist handling rather than dropped to a parcel carrier.

Outbound is handled to the same standard it was received to, whether it is going to a customer, a showroom, or onto the interstate legs.
