GlobalTranz is a third-party logistics provider that GSI utilizes for all Gorilla Grow Tent, Kind LED, and Lotus Nutrients freight orders shipping in the West. For freight orders to the rest of the US, please see the article for Daylight Transport – BOL. SuperCloset orders do not usually ship through GlobalTranz, instead use Old Dominion [INSERT LINK] for all Western SuperCloset orders. GSI uses a select number of carriers from GlobalTranz including:
