Pallet freight · rate card public

Pallet rates you can read without asking.

The whole card, published — almost nobody in Australian pallet freight does that. From $95 a pallet. GST in, fuel levy in, insurance to $20,000 in. No account minimums, no quote forms, no callback queue.

One pallet space is 1165 × 1165 mm to 1.8 m and 500 kg. Heavier pallets take more of the truck's legal payload, so they buy more spaces — that's the only arithmetic on this card.

The card, in full

Per pallet space, inc GST, both directions listed separately because trucks don't run equally full both ways. Green rows are backhaul legs — decks with spare space, so they carry our sharpest rates.

No fuel levy. Ever.

The industry quotes a rate, then adds a weekly-indexed fuel levy on top — published at 34.63% on palletised express at one major this month. Ours is $0, forever, because diesel is already in the card. When diesel moves, the card moves — your booked price doesn't.

No account minimums.

Two pallets a month is a customer, not an inconvenience. First shipments are payment-before-pickup; after three clean runs we move accounts to 14-day invoicing (credit at our discretion). No forms before you see a price.

Backhaul honesty.

Some legs run with spare deck, and we'd rather fill them than pretend otherwise — those lanes are marked and priced sharper. Adelaide shippers do especially well out of this.

Pallet freight questions

How much does it cost to send a pallet from Melbourne to Sydney?
$156 per pallet space, GST and fuel included, insured to $20,000. That covers a standard 1165 × 1165 mm pallet up to 1.8 m tall and 500 kg. The full card for every lane is published on this page.
Do you charge a fuel levy on pallet freight?
No. Diesel is priced inside the published rate, so the price you book is the price you're invoiced. Most national carriers quote a rate and then add a weekly-indexed fuel levy on top — published above 30% on palletised express at one major carrier recently.
What counts as one pallet space?
1165 × 1165 mm footprint, up to 1.8 m tall and 500 kg. Heavier pallets take more of the truck's legal payload, so up to 750 kg buys 1.5 spaces and up to 1,000 kg buys 2. Tail-lift deliveries are capped at 750 kg per pallet — that's the machine's limit, not a policy.
Do I need an account or a monthly minimum to book?
No. Price it on this page, book it, pay before pickup. There's no account to open and no monthly minimum — two pallets a month is a customer, not an inconvenience. After three clean runs we can move you to 14-day invoicing.
Can you pick up or deliver at a residential address?
Yes, kerbside, declared when you book so the right truck comes. If there's no forklift or dock at either end we bring a tail-lift — pallets over 750 kg can't ride a tail-lift, so those need a forklift on the ground.
