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 Coffs Harbour–Melbourne, the enclosed option combines these legs in either direction:

  • Coffs Harbour ↔ Brisbane depot: standard carrier.
  • Brisbane depot ↔ Melbourne depot: enclosed transport.

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.

Coffs Harbour to Melbourne

Give the Coffs Harbour pickup address, or the actual surrounding town if that is where the vehicle is held. Confirm the seller’s or owner’s release availability. Provide the Melbourne delivery suburb and explain any access limits at an apartment, business or inner-city address.

Melbourne to Coffs Harbour

For pickup in Melbourne, check business or seller hours and supply accurate vehicle details. Enter the Coffs Harbour destination, including any property outside town. If you are travelling separately, arrange someone to receive the car or confirm the depot collection conditions before relying on that option.

Check a purchased vehicle before booking

Ask the seller to confirm the make, model, modifications and whether it starts, rolls, steers and brakes. Obtain the release location and contact details once agreed. Tell the booking team about low clearance or loading issues before accepting a standard service, and confirm that settlement or repairs will not prevent release.

Can transport be arranged while a sale is still being finalised?

You can request a quote with accurate details, but collection depends on the vehicle being ready and authorised for release. Update the booking team if settlement, keys or the seller’s availability changes.

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.
