Prioritised the whole way

Your interstate delivery, locked in and moving on schedule. We collect your freight, fast-track it through the overnight linehaul, and the first truck out the other end delivers it straight to the door — no depot layovers, no waiting for the next scheduled run.

Priority Interstate Freight — Sydney, Melbourne & Brisbane

Need your pallets interstate as soon as possible? Our Priority service collects your freight and moves it as fast as the lane allows — next business day on the Sydney–Melbourne and Sydney–Brisbane corridors, both directions. Faster than General Freight, without the cost of a dedicated truck.

How it works

We collect your freight and fast-track it through the overnight linehaul with priority handling. On arrival, the first available truck delivers direct to the door, with an optional booked delivery window at each end.

When to use Priority

Stock a customer needs quickly, parts a production line is waiting on, or a booked warehouse slot you can't miss. When General's transit won't cut it but you don't need a whole truck, Priority is the middle path.

Coverage

Priority runs next-business-day on Sydney–Melbourne and Sydney–Brisbane, both directions. Melbourne–Brisbane delivers in 2 days. For all other lanes, our General Freight service runs 2–5 business days, or our Express full truckload service sends a dedicated truck anywhere in Australia.

For the Sydney–Melbourne corridor, see our dedicated Sydney to Melbourne freight service page.
