Express — a dedicated truck, Sydney straight to Brisbane

A truck dedicated to your freight, direct from Sydney to Brisbane — no depot handling, no shared space, no extra stops. Full control and the fastest transit, next day as standard. The right choice for time-sensitive, fragile or high-value freight, or when you need a specific vehicle like a HIAB or flat-top.

Pallets — priority or cost-effective

For pallets and smaller loads, Priority fast-tracks your freight through the linehaul with express pickup and delivery at each end — faster than General, without the cost of a dedicated truck. Or send it General through our shared network, up to two business days, when saving on cost matters more than speed.

Sydney to Brisbane Freight — Express & General Freight Services

A major east coast freight corridor, running daily. Whether you need a dedicated truck on your schedule, a dedicated truck on ours at a lower rate, or cost-effective shipping through our shared freight network, we move freight between Sydney and Brisbane every day. For semi-trailers and B-doubles, choose from two full truckload tiers: Express FTL and General FTL.

Express — A Dedicated Truck, Direct to Brisbane

A truck dedicated to your freight, direct from Sydney to Brisbane — no depot handling, no shared space, no extra stops. You stay in control and your freight gets the fastest possible transit, with next-day delivery as standard.

Express is the right choice for time-sensitive deliveries, fragile or high-value goods, or when you need a specific vehicle like a HIAB or flat-top. For semi-trailers and B-doubles on this corridor, General FTL offers the same exclusive truck at a lower rate by running on our schedule.

Priority — Fast-Tracked Through the Linehaul

For pallets and smaller loads on this corridor, Priority fast-tracks your freight through the linehaul. An express truck picks up your freight in Sydney, it's prioritised through the linehaul to Brisbane, and another express truck delivers at the other end. Faster than General, without the cost of a dedicated truck.

Priority includes booked time slots for time-sensitive freight and $500 freight cover on every consignment at no extra cost.

General Freight — Up to 2 Business Days

Your freight moves through the national linehaul network alongside other shipments. It's the more cost-effective option when your delivery isn't urgent. Transit time is up to 2 business days from pickup.

General is the right choice for palletised goods, regular shipments, bulk stock replenishment, or anything where saving on freight cost matters more than speed.
