Truck & Motorhome Transport Townsville to Mackay

Fully insured truck & motorhome transport from Townsville to Mackay — door-to-door or depot-to-depot, typically 2–7 business days over roughly 410 km. We transport commercial, private, light and heavy trucks, motorhomes, buses and vans, on a modern, well-maintained fleet of vehicle carriers, with customised solutions for larger units.

Moving a truck, motorhome or bus interstate is a different job from moving a car, and the difference is almost always size. Height, length and ground clearance decide which trailer can carry the unit and which routes it can legally travel, so those measurements matter more than the make or model. A low-clearance prime mover and a tall motorhome of the same length need completely different equipment.

We move registered and unregistered units, runners and non-runners. If the truck cannot be driven onto a trailer under its own power, say so when you request a quote — it changes the equipment we send, and finding out at the kerb costs everyone a day.

How truck & motorhome transport works

1. Tell us the real dimensions: Height, length, width and weight, plus whether it runs and drives. Measure the highest fixed point — exhaust stacks, air conditioners and light bars are what catch out an otherwise straightforward move.
2. We match the right equipment: The unit is allocated to a trailer that suits its height and weight, on a route that can legally carry it. Oversize units may need a permit, which we arrange.
3. Collection and load-out: Loaded and restrained with rated chains or straps to the appropriate load-restraint standard, with a written condition report and photos taken before the truck leaves.
4. Transit and delivery: You get SMS and email updates as the unit moves. At delivery you check it against the same condition report before signing.

Preparing your truck or motorhome for transport

A few minutes of preparation prevents most of the problems we see. Run through this before collection:

• Remove or secure loose gear, tools and aerials — anything that can move will move.
• Note the true overall height including stacks, aerials and roof-mounted air conditioning.
• Fold or remove mirrors where they extend beyond the body.
• Leave roughly a quarter tank of fuel — enough to load and unload, not enough to add unnecessary weight.
• Disconnect the battery on a non-runner, and tell us it is a non-runner when you book.
• Have keys available at both ends, or arrange with us in advance if that is not possible.

Frequently asked questions

How long does truck or motorhome transport take from Townsville to Mackay?

Typical transit on the Townsville to Mackay run is 2 to 7 business days from collection, covering roughly 410 km. Larger or oversize units can sit outside that window because they travel on routes that can legally carry them — you get a delivery window when the booking is confirmed.

What does it cost to move a truck or motorhome Townsville to Mackay?

There is no single from-price on this route, because commercial, private, light and heavy trucks, motorhomes, buses and vans are quoted individually on size, weight and whether the unit runs and drives — those change which trailer is needed far more than the distance does. The instant online quote returns a price in about a minute.

Where do you collect and deliver on the Townsville to Mackay route?

Depot-to-depot on this route means collection at Townsville depot, Bohle QLD 4818, and delivery at Mackay depot, 25170 Peak Downs Highway, Greenmount QLD 4751. Door-to-door collection and delivery is available at either end where truck access allows, and is quoted as an add-on.

Can you move an unregistered or non-running truck or motorhome Townsville to Mackay?

Yes. Tell us when you request the quote — a unit that cannot be driven onto a trailer needs winching equipment, and knowing in advance is what stops a wasted trip at the kerb. It is priced into the quote rather than added later.

Every unit is quoted individually — size, weight and condition all factor in. Get an instant online quote.
