Frequently Asked Questions

What machinery can you transport?

We transport a wide range of construction equipment including: 

If you’ve hired machinery from us, we’ll get it to your site. We also offer transport services by request. 

 

What types of trucks do you use?

We operate a modern, well-maintained fleet designed to handle everything from compact machines to oversized construction equipment. Whether you need local machinery delivery in Perth or long-distance transport across WA, we have the right truck for the job. 

  • Float / Low Loaders – The go-to choice for heavy machinery transport in WA. With the ability to move 25-tonne excavators, large rollers, or multiple machines in one load, these trailers sit low to the ground for safer loading and to meet height clearance requirements. Ideal for oversized loads, bulk deliveries and long-haul equipment relocations across Western Australia.
  • Tilt Tray Loaders – Perfect for compact construction equipment transport in Perth, fast turnaround and flexible loading. With a 13-tonne load capacity, our hydraulic tilt trays make it easy to move excavators, skid steers, and rollers — even in tight access areas.
  • Flatbeds – rated up to 5.5 tonnes, are a cost-effective solution for lighter machinery and equipment delivery in Perth and surrounding areas. They’re ideal for: 
    • Mini excavators, compact loaders, compactors and small rollers 
    • Palletised materials and construction supplies 

 Each vehicle is driven by trained, ticketed operators and fully insured. 

 

How far do you deliver?

We deliver statewide Western Australia: 

  • Perth Metro – same-day and next-day service available 
  • Northern suburbs – including Yanchep, Bullsbrook & Muchea 
  • Greater WA – long-haul options available for regional or remote jobs 

If your job is in Western Australia, we can get your machinery there. 

Before booking, clients can check live WA road closures and traffic updates through Main Roads WA’s Travel Map to help plan delivery times.

 

Can I book transport without hiring a machine?

Yes. We offer standalone transport services for construction businesses who need a trusted local transport partner. 

 

How much does machinery transport cost?

Pricing depends on the size of your load, delivery distance and any special requirements. 

We offer: 

  • Fixed rates for common routes (ex. Perth Metro deliveries) 
  • Competitive day and hourly rates for longer jobs
