Door to Door service — Also known as Home to Home, this transport option is the most convenient as you specify the exact collection and delivery location and the car carrier does the rest. The door to door service type can be more expensive than others but offers a ‘hands-off’ approach for getting a vehicle from A to B with minimum requirements from the owner, seller, or buyer.
Depot to Depot service — Offered by many car transport specialists, a depot to depot service requires the vehicle owner, seller, or buyer to drop off and pick up the vehicle from the transport operator’s depots. This service can save you between $200 to $800 but does involve time and effort on your behalf. Depots are located throughout Australia in all major cities and many regional hubs.
Express car transport — If you need to move a vehicle quickly, you can opt for an express car transport service. Generally, this will come with an added ‘express’ fee, but it can seriously cut down the transit time by days, even weeks. This can be particularly beneficial for larger interstate routes, such as Melbourne to Perth. The express option allows you to jump the queue and move the vehicle on a schedule that suits you.
Enclosed car transport — Depending on the vehicle type and your preference, you can choose to have a vehicle transported on an enclosed trailer or carrier. This option is often used for high-value, vintage, and luxury vehicles as it offers added protection from outside elements, such as weather and debris during transit.
Interstate car transport — With vast distances between cities and states across Australia, interstate car transport offers an affordable way to relocate a vehicle anywhere on the mainland and to Tasmania. For interstate routes, car transport experts use multi-vehicle carriers to offer more affordable prices. Interstate car transport can take between 3 to 5 working days for East Coast cities, and 6 to 10 working days for Western Australia or Northern Territory relocations.
Local car transport and towing — Depending on the distance and vehicle condition, car transport operators can quickly transport a vehicle from A to B, sometimes as fast as the same day. For breakdowns or non-runners, a towing trailer or tilt tray vehicle carrier will be used. For the same city or statewide vehicle moves, a multi-vehicle carrier can help reduce costs, particularly if it coincides with a return journey from an existing booking - this is known as ‘back-loading’.
