- Door to Depot – we collect from you, the receiver collects from the depot.
- Depot to Depot – the lowest cost option for freight that can be dropped off and collected.
Parcels and palletised freight
Envelopes, parcels and cartons travel on our general interstate network. Anything over roughly 70kg is safer and cheaper on a pallet: pallets give strength and stability in transit and cut the manual handling that adds cost. Our pallet courier delivery page explains how we pack and handle palletised loads, and how to avoid the surcharges that come from incorrect packing.
Getting an interstate quote
Interstate freight is priced per lane rather than on the Melbourne metro same-day scale, so use the country or interstate quote form. Enter the pickup and delivery locations with the item details and you get a price for the route. For work inside Melbourne, use the Melbourne metro quote or our pickup and delivery service page instead.
Booking and tracking
Interstate jobs are booked through the same online booking form – see how to book a courier if it is your first time – and tracked from the tracking page. Businesses sending interstate regularly can apply for an account.
