Melbourne to Brisbane removals
Two departures a week and a long run, so give yourself a seven day delivery window rather than a date.
- $140 to $185 per m3
- Dedicated 2 to 3 business days
- QLD
1,680 kilometres with a driver changeover in Sydney, departing Tuesdays and Fridays. It is the longest east coast run we do by road and the one where flexible dates save the most money.
Queensland does not inspect household goods at the border, but the fire ant biosecurity zone across south east Queensland has rules about moving soil, potted plants, mulch and turf into and within the area. Plan to arrive without any of them.
What a move on this corridor costs

Quarantine on this run
The fire ant suppression zone covers most of south east Queensland. Do not carry soil, potting mix, mulch, turf, hay or potted plants into it. Garden tools, mower decks, pot bases and outdoor furniture feet must be clean and dry. Empty the fridge of fresh produce before uplift, because this truck may also service Adelaide.
