What STEP Transport does

STEP Transport is a Danish B2B last-mile logistics provider founded in 2018 and headquartered at Priorparken 851, Brøndby, Denmark (CVR 39378094). The company specializes exclusively in the delivery of non-standard goods — primarily furniture and large items — and serves last-mile logistics providers and freight forwarders through a sales-led go-to-market, reaching end consumers indirectly via a B2B2C motion. The service portfolio is structured in tiered offerings: Kantsten (curbside), Indbæring (room delivery), Montering (assembly with packaging removal), Bortskaffelse (1:1 old furniture removal), Tidsbestemt (48-hour scheduled), and Express (2-hour terminal departure), complemented by return collection services for both curbside and carry-in pickup.

The company's technology stack centers on STEP Core, a proprietary cloud-based delivery management platform with an open API for integration with partner systems, paired with STEP World (customer-facing portal) and Optimo, a live GPS tracking system that pushes automated SMS notifications and live tracking links to end recipients. Revenue is generated through transaction-based service fees on a pay-as-you-go basis, with quote-based pricing tied to the service tier and delivery specifications. The company operates exclusively in Denmark with a headcount of 11–50 employees, is privately held with no disclosed investors or parent entity, and has no recorded M&A, funding rounds, patents, or regulatory actions in the source data.

Broad incumbents

• DSV: Danish-headquartered global transport and logistics provider, with road, air, sea and contract logistics including home delivery solutions. Comparable as a large Danish-headquartered incumbent whose scale and contracting posture shape the competitive backdrop STEP operates within.
• GEODIS: Global French-headquartered 3PL with established European distribution and last-mile capabilities, including B2B fulfillment for bulky and e-commerce goods. Comparable as a broad European 3PL incumbent that competes for the same freight forwarder and retailer spend as STEP.
• PostNord (incl. Bring): Dominant Nordic postal and parcel logistics incumbent operating in Denmark and across Scandinavia, with growing e-commerce and home delivery offerings that increasingly overlap with STEP's white-glove furniture delivery segment. Comparable as an established, in-region broad incumbent.
• XPO Last Mile (formerly GXO Last Mile): Large North American final-mile, big-and-bulky home delivery network serving retailers and OEMs with assembly, install, and removal services. Comparable as a scaled, platformed incumbent in heavy/bulky last-mile for retail and 3PL partners.
• UniGroup: Large US-based moving and household-goods specialist (United Van Lines, Mayflower, etc.) offering residential and corporate relocation services including white-glove home delivery. Comparable as an established household-goods specialist with adjacent service tiers.

Direct peers

• Arrow XL: UK-based two-person home delivery specialist for large items including furniture, white goods, and fitness equipment. Operates a similar tiered service model (room of choice, assembly, packaging removal) and serves retailers and 3PL partners via a tech-enabled platform — directly comparable to STEP on customer type and service scope.
• Mobergs Logistics: Nordic two-person/last-mile specialist focused on home delivery of furniture and large appliances across Sweden, Norway, and Denmark. Operates in the same hybrid market segment with similar service tiers (curbside, in-home, assembly, disposal) and B2B partner model, making it STEP's most direct regional comparable.
• GoBolt: Canada- and US-focused last-mile and warehouse operator that explicitly specializes in big-and-bulky, including furniture and appliances, served through both proprietary tech and partner integrations. Closely comparable to STEP on heavy/bulky focus, tech-enabled B2B service model, and tiered service SKUs.
• Veho: Tech-led US last-mile operator for non-standard, oversized, and high-value shipments, integrated into retailer and logistics partner systems via APIs. Comparable to STEP on the open-API, B2B2C/partner-led, premium-service philosophy and SMS-based customer experience.

Emerging players

• nShift (formerly Unifaun / Consignor): Nordic-origin delivery management and multi-carrier shipping software platform serving shippers and logistics providers across Europe. Comparable to STEP's STEP Core platform on the technology layer — specifically multi-carrier orchestration, label generation, and partner API connectivity for last-mile and parcel operations.
