Pickup and delivery options

Handover options depend on the location and selected service. Capital cities and larger centres may offer depot or address collection and delivery. In smaller towns, handover may be at your address, through a local agent or at an agreed meeting point with the driver. Your quote confirms the available arrangement. The enclosed-network depots listed on this page identify transport connections; they are not necessarily your pickup or delivery handover points.

Enclosed transport and connecting legs

Enclosed transport is available between capital-city depots in both directions. Townsville is also part of this enclosed depot network and is treated as a capital-city depot for quoting purposes.

For Canberra–Wollongong, the enclosed option combines these legs in either direction:

• Canberra depot ↔ Sydney depot: enclosed transport.
• Sydney depot ↔ Wollongong: standard carrier.

Moving Cars arranges the full journey, including the standard-carrier connections; you do not need to organise those legs separately. This is a mixed enclosed/standard service, not enclosed transport for the entire journey.

To request enclosed rates, obtain a standard vehicle quote, then reply requesting an enclosed upgrade. Confirm the depot locations, enclosed leg and any standard-carrier connections before booking. The initial standard quote does not book an enclosed service. See the enclosed enquiry guide.

Canberra to Wollongong

Enter the Canberra pickup suburb and explain restricted access at a garage, apartment or business. If collection is actually in Queanbeyan or elsewhere nearby, use that location. Give the Wollongong delivery address and nominate someone who can attend the confirmed handover.

Wollongong to Canberra

For collection in Wollongong, check the release contact’s availability and describe any narrow or steep approach. Enter the actual Canberra destination and explain building or parking restrictions. If a seller or workshop is releasing the vehicle, settle authority, keys and opening hours before collection.

Choose a practical handover location

An address service requires suitable access for the carrier. Explain restrictions before booking and ask whether an agreed meeting point or depot option is needed. Compare any depot addresses and opening hours with the travel involved. Keep your release and receiving contacts available rather than assuming they can be called only at a fixed appointment time.

Can I request transport for a specific day?

Explain the required date before booking and ask what the selected service can confirm. Keep collection windows and transit estimates separate from a guaranteed arrival, and arrange backup handover help if your availability is limited.

Before collection

Have a quarter tank of fuel or a charged EV, keys and release details ready. Photograph the vehicle’s condition and follow the preparation checklist. Report starting, rolling, steering or braking problems so specialist transport can be assessed where needed.

Every available quote offers a Goods in Car option. If you want to carry belongings, select and book the option, then follow the chosen carrier’s allowance and packing rules. See the belongings guide.

Check the cost guide when comparing inclusions. Confirm collection and delivery arrangements and discuss deadlines before booking; timing estimates can change.
