Pallet freight Sydney → Adelaide

$339per pallet · GST & fuel in

This is a backhaul leg — trucks run this direction with spare deck, so it carries one of the sharpest rates on our card.

How much does it cost to send a pallet from Sydney to Adelaide?

With Pea Logistics, one pallet Sydney → Adelaide costs $339, GST and fuel levy included. That buys one pallet space: 1165 × 1165 mm (the Australian standard pallet), stacked to 1.8 m and up to 500 kg; a taller or heavier pallet takes more of the truck and is priced for it. Volume rates apply from 8 spaces. Typically weekly departures over 1,376 km, priced online in seconds with no account. Pea publishes its full pallet rate card for every lane it runs.

One space is 1165 × 1165 mm to 1.8 m and 500 kg — heavier pallets buy more of the truck's legal payload. The number updates as you type; booking needs no account.

Not sure how many pallets?

One pallet space holds 2.3 m³ — a 1165 × 1165 mm base stacked to 1.8 m. Picture your goods as a cube: roughly every 2.3 m³ is one space. A stack of 60 archive boxes ≈ 2 pallets; a small machine on a skid ≈ 1. Declare what will actually ship — loads that turn up bigger than declared get re-rated at the dock.

Access at each end

No forklift or dock at one end? That needs a tail-lift. A home address needs time a loading bay doesn't. Declare both now and the price below is the price.

The corridor

1,376 km, about two days via the Sturt and Hume. 1,376 km via Wagga on a weekly rhythm, dock-to-dock. Pickup windows are confirmed within one business day of booking — we publish the price and the rhythm, not promises we can't keep.

Sydney → Adelaide$339/pallet

Westbound via the Hume and the Sturt: Sydney to Adelaide across the Riverina, the long diagonal of the network. Sydney-held stock heading to South Australian customers on a weekly run.

Who ships it

Sydney distributors with South Australian accounts, consolidating a week's orders onto one scheduled departure. This is the emptier leg of the corridor, which is why it carries one of the sharpest rates on the card.

Line haul Sydney → Adelaide

This is a scheduled line haul run: typically weekly departures over 1,376 km, with your pallets on a truck already making the trip rather than a vehicle chartered for you. You buy the deck space the consignment occupies, and nothing else. Every line haul corridor and its rate.

With Pea Logistics, one pallet Sydney → Adelaide costs $339, GST and fuel levy included.

Why does Adelaide → Sydney cost more than Sydney → Adelaide?
Adelaide → Sydney is $340 a pallet space and Sydney → Adelaide is $339. The two directions are priced on how full the trucks typically run each way: the direction with more deck to fill carries the lower rate. Sydney → Adelaide is a backhaul leg — trucks run it with spare deck, the space we most want to sell. The difference is the corridor's real economics, printed — not a discount we invented.

Going the other way? Adelaide → Sydney is $340/pallet. The fine print — weights, tail-lift, dangerous goods, payment terms — is printed once, on the whole card, rather than repeated on every lane.
