Request a vehicle transport quote.

Most vehicle quotes are instant; some enquiries take a few hours to assess. The options returned depend on the details supplied and the service available at the time.

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 Melbourne–Brisbane, enclosed transport is available between Melbourne depot and Brisbane depot in both directions. Any connecting address pickup or delivery outside that depot leg uses a standard carrier. Moving Cars can arrange those connections as part of the full journey; an address-to-address booking is not automatically enclosed for every leg.

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.

Collection in Melbourne and delivery to Brisbane

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.

Describe narrow gates, height restrictions, steep or unsealed approaches and limited turning space. If buying from a seller, arrange release authority, keys and a contact who can attend collection. Check any depot hours and storage conditions before booking.

Compare the quoted service

Price depends on the actual journey, vehicle size and condition, access and available capacity. Compare the handover points, selected options and possible additional charges as well as the total. Our car transport cost guide explains what to check.

Disclose damage, low clearance, modifications or a non-running vehicle before accepting a quote. A standard drivable quote does not confirm specialist handling. For enclosed transport, obtain a standard quote and reply requesting enclosed upgrade rates.

Timing and updates

For an indicative business-day range from collection or depot drop-off, see the capital-city transit grid. Confirm the estimate for your selected service before booking.

Tell us about any deadline before accepting the quote. Collection arrangements and estimated arrival need confirmation; an enquiry does not reserve a slot or guarantee a delivery date. Some carriers offer online tracking and others do not, so ask how updates are provided.

Preparation and cover

Every available quote offers a Goods in Car option. Select and book it if you want belongings to travel, and follow the allowance and packing instructions for the selected service. Read the goods-in-car guide and vehicle preparation checklist.

Cover, limits, exclusions and claim procedures vary by carrier and service. Read the terms supplied with your quote; do not assume comprehensive insurance is included. We recommend arranging suitable individual insurance and checking with your insurer that the planned transport is covered.
