Taxi trucks in Brisbane, in plain words

A taxi truck is a truck and driver booked just for your freight. We collect it at A and drive it to B. It never goes back to a depot to be unloaded, stored and reloaded, and that is the handling where freight on a shared service gets damaged.

In Brisbane that means a truck from our Willawong depot, the right size for the load, usually at your door within 1 to 2 hours of booking anywhere across Greater Brisbane. You see the hourly rate before you confirm, you get milestone updates as the driver goes, and a photo proof of delivery when it lands.

Which truck

Taxi truck sizes in Brisbane

Pick by pallets, not by guesswork. Too big and you pay for air; too small and the driver cannot take the whole load. Unsure? The Brisbane branch will match it for you.

Vehicle	Size	Pallets	Best for
Van or ute	1 to 2 tonne	1 to 3	Parcels, cartons, one or two pallets, urgent small loads
Pantech or tautliner	4 to 8 tonne	6 to 12	The everyday taxi truck: pallets, stock, store runs
Heavy rigid	10 to 14 tonne	12 to 16	Larger loads inside the metro area
Semi-trailer	22 to 24 pallets	22 to 24	Full loads, DC to DC
B-double	Up to 34 pallets	Up to 34	The biggest single move across the city

Tail lifts, hand unloads and crane trucks are available where there is no forklift at either end. Tell us on booking so we send the right truck.

Why a dedicated truck

Your freight only. No depot in between.

A to B, not A to depot to B

On a shared service your pallet is unloaded, stored and reloaded at least once. Every touch is a chance for a fork tyne or a stacked load to damage it. A taxi truck skips the depot.

Nothing else on the truck

Nobody else's freight is stacked on yours or wedged against it. What leaves your dock is what arrives, strapped the way the driver loaded it.

Insured while it is with us

Your freight is insured while it is on our truck. Limits and an excess apply; ask the branch for the details.

Taxi trucks Brisbane FAQ

What is a taxi truck?

A truck and driver booked just for your freight. It is collected at A and driven straight to B. It does not go back to a depot to be unloaded, stored and reloaded, which is where freight on a shared service gets damaged. Nothing is consolidated and nothing sits on a dock.

How quickly can a taxi truck be at my door in Brisbane?

Same day, usually within 1 to 2 hours across Greater Brisbane. There is no fixed cut-off. Book early in the day for the tightest windows and the ops desk confirms your pickup time when you book.

What sizes can I book?

Everything from a 1 to 2 tonne van or ute (1 to 3 pallets) through 4 to 8 tonne and 10 to 14 tonne rigids (6 to 16 pallets) to semi-trailers (22 to 24 pallets) and B-doubles (up to 34 pallets). Not sure which? Call the branch and we will pick it with you.
