Car Transport Perth to Brisbane

From $1,100 (incl. GST, excl. fuel levy) for a running sedan depot-to-depot, 10–18 business days. Prices as at 14/10/2026.

Reliable, fully insured vehicle transport Perth to Brisbane — from $1,100, 10–18 business day transit over roughly 4,300 km. Door-to-door or depot-to-depot.

Heading east from Perth to Brisbane means crossing the Nullarbor in reverse — loading at our Maddington depot near Tonkin Highway, running the Eyre Highway through Norseman and Ceduna, then connecting through our eastern network up to South-East Queensland. All up it's about 4,300 km, the full width of the country.

Your car finishes at the Stapylton depot on the M1 south of Brisbane — handy for Brisbane, Logan and Gold Coast alike. This lane is popular with WA families moving east and with mining-sector workers rotating back to Queensland; non-running vehicles and 4WDs are welcome, just tell us at quote time.

Depot-to-depot pricing starts from $1,100 for a standard running sedan (incl. GST, excl. fuel levy), and door-to-door collection across the Perth metro area or delivery across Brisbane and the Gold Coast can be added at either end. Typical transit is 10–18 business days: the car crosses the Nullarbor, then connects north through our eastern network on scheduled legs, with SMS and email updates at each milestone.

Perth to Brisbane car transport at a glance

What's included

• Carrier's transit insurance: your vehicle is covered from the moment we collect it until it is signed for at the other end.
• Door-to-door or depot-to-depot: we collect and deliver to your address where truck access allows, or you save by using our depots at each end.
• Written condition report: photographed and signed at pickup, and checked against the vehicle again at delivery, so any dispute is settled by evidence rather than memory.
• Running or not: non-runners can be moved with the right equipment — tell us when you book so we send it.
• SMS and email updates: you are told when the vehicle is collected, when it is in transit and when it is ready.

How car transport Perth to Brisbane works

1. Quote: enter the pickup and delivery suburbs and the vehicle make and model. The price comes back in about a minute, with no obligation and no phone call needed.
2. Book and schedule: we confirm a collection window. Perth to Brisbane typically runs 10–18 business days once the vehicle is on a truck.
3. Collection and condition report: the driver photographs the vehicle from every angle and records existing marks before it is loaded.
4. In transit: the vehicle travels on a purpose-built carrier, secured by the wheels rather than the chassis so the suspension is not strained.
5. Delivery and sign-off: you check the vehicle against the same condition report before signing. Anything that does not match is raised then and there.

What the price depends on

Two cars on the same route can be quoted differently, and it is worth knowing why:

• Size: a dual-cab ute or seven-seat SUV takes more deck space than a hatchback, and space is what you are buying.
• Whether it runs: a non-runner has to be winched, which needs particular equipment and more time.
• Door-to-door or depot: depot-to-depot is consistently cheaper because it keeps the truck on main routes.
• Timing: flexible dates are cheaper than a fixed day, because we can fill a truck efficiently.
• Modifications: lift kits, roof racks, spoilers and low body kits change the height or clearance and can change the equipment needed.

Preparing your car for transport

Ten minutes of preparation prevents most of the problems we see:

• Remove personal belongings — transit insurance covers the vehicle, not loose items inside it.
• Leave about a quarter tank of fuel: enough to load and unload, not enough to add weight.
• Take a set of your own photos on the day, so you have your own record alongside ours.
• Retract the aerial, fold the mirrors and remove roof racks, bike racks and toll tags.
• Disable any alarm or immobiliser that could trigger in transit, and tell the driver how it works.
• Check for leaks and note existing damage — declaring a scratch up front is far easier than arguing about it later.
• Provide one working key at collection and make sure someone can receive the vehicle at the other end.

Where do I drop my car off in Perth?

Can I ship a 4WD or ute from Perth to Brisbane?

Absolutely — 4WDs, utes, vans and oversized vehicles cross the Nullarbor with us constantly. Larger and modified vehicles are priced individually, so include the details in your instant quote for an exact figure.

Where do I collect my car in Brisbane — and can it go to the Gold Coast?

Cars from Perth are unloaded at our Stapylton depot, 6 Elliot Drive, Stapylton QLD 4207, on the M1 between Brisbane and the Gold Coast. Collect it there, or book door-to-door delivery to any Brisbane, Logan or Gold Coast address.

Why does Perth to Brisbane take 10–18 business days?

It's about 4,300 km — the full width of the country. Your car crosses the Nullarbor eastbound and then changes carriers at hub depots on the way north, and each leg runs to a timetable, so the window is quoted conservatively rather than as one truck driving non-stop.

Is it cheaper to drive or to transport my car from Perth to Brisbane?

Driving it yourself means about 4,300 km and several long days on the road, plus fuel, overnight stops, meals and a flight back. Transport from $1,100 depot-to-depot (incl. GST, excl. fuel levy) often compares well once those are added up, and it keeps the Nullarbor kilometres off your car. Your instant online quote gives you the exact figure to compare.

Can you move a non-running car from Perth to Brisbane?

Yes — non-runners are loaded by winch or tilt-tray at the Maddington depot and travel the same route east to Stapylton. Just flag it as non-running in your quote so the right equipment is scheduled at both ends.
