Forklift loading freight into a Quick Cargo curtain-side trailer for interstate linehaul

From a single pallet to a full truckload

Shipping one pallet or a whole B-double, we move it interstate. Single and multi-pallet shipments run through our General network — collected, consolidated through the linehaul and delivered anywhere in Australia. On east coast corridors, Priority fast-tracks pallets at both ends without the cost of a full truck.

East coast routes run daily with the fastest transit times; Adelaide and Perth corridors run multiple times a week, with regular Darwin and Hobart services.

Nationwide Logistics — Pallet & Full Truckload Freight Across Australia

We move pallets and full truckloads across Australia every day — from our Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane hubs to anywhere in the country and back. Whether you're shipping a single pallet from Sydney to Perth or a B-double from Melbourne to Brisbane, we'll get it there with full tracking and support at every stage.

Pallet Freight

Single pallets and multi-pallet shipments move through our General freight network. Your pallets are collected from your location, consolidated through the linehaul, and delivered anywhere in Australia. This is the most cost-effective way to move palletised goods interstate.

On east coast corridors (Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane), Priority is also available — your pallets are fast-tracked through the linehaul with express pickup and delivery at each end. Faster than General, without the cost of a full truck.

Pallet freight is available on standard and oversized pallets. If your freight isn't palletised, we can still move it — get a quote with your dimensions and we'll find the right option.

Full Truckloads

For semi-trailers and B-doubles, you get a whole truck dedicated to your freight — no sharing, no depot handling. Your load stays on the same truck from pickup to delivery.

On major interstate routes, choose from two truckload tiers:

  • Express FTL — runs on your schedule. First available truck, timed delivery. The fastest option.
  • General FTL — your freight, our schedule. Same exclusive truck, lower cost by departing on our next planned run.

General FTL is available on major routes between Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, and Perth for semi-trailer and B-double loads.

Transit times vary by route and service tier. Here's a guide for the most popular corridors:
