Regional pickups and drops around those corridors are routine — a regional end adds a feeder leg the quote prices automatically (for the 100 km Sunshine Coast run, $280 with ±1 week flexible dates or $540 on a fixed date). If you're not sure whether your two addresses are on a lane, put them into the quote tool: it either prices the move or tells you it can't, and it won't guess.
Waitlist-only for now
Perth, Hobart and Darwin lanes exist on the site with indicative distances, but they can't be booked and won't return an instant quote. The honest reason is capacity: backloading only works when there are enough trucks already running a route with space to sell. Under-serviced corridors mean either long waits or prices that aren't actually cheaper than a dedicated truck — and at that point we'd be selling the word 'backloading' rather than the thing itself.
The waitlist isn't a marketing list. It's how we see where demand concentrates, which is what decides the order lanes open in — South Australia going live in August 2026 is exactly that process working: Melbourne–Adelaide was the most-requested corridor on the list, and it opened first.

What has to be true before a lane opens
Three things, in order. Enough carrier partners running the route regularly that we can offer a pickup window measured in days rather than weeks. Enough two-way freight that the return leg is genuinely discounted rather than notionally so. And a rate we can publish as a fixed number inc GST, rather than a 'from' price that moves once we see the job.
Until all three hold, a lane stays on the waitlist. We'd rather lose the booking than quote a price we can't honour — that's the same reason our coming-soon lane pages carry indicative figures and no Book button.
