Leaving Perth usually costs less than arriving
On Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane and Adelaide, customers moving a car out of Perth paid less than customers moving one in. The gap was widest on Adelaide, where Perth to Adelaide was typically well under half the price of the trip the other way. Perth to Melbourne was typically $1,000 against $1,650 coming back.
Darwin is the exception. Perth to Darwin was typically dearer than Darwin to Perth, and fewer cars make that trip, so prices vary more.
That pattern can change from month to month, so treat it as a guide and check your quote.
How your car gets there
Your car travels on a car carrier. We book a contracted carrier for the long haul out of Perth. If you choose a door service, we also book the pickup and the delivery.
The estimated transit window for your car is shown on your quote, in business days. Weekends and public holidays are not counted.
Depot to depot or door to door
- Depot to depot is usually the cheaper option. You drop the car at the carrier’s Perth depot and collect it from the depot at the other end.
- Door to door means the car is picked up from your address and delivered to the address you give us. It usually costs more.
Check the depot’s opening hours before you plan your drop-off or collection.
What we can move from Perth
- Cars, wagons, 4WDs and SUVs, including modified 4WDs
- Vintage and classic cars
- Cars that do not run
- Motorbikes
- Caravans, boats, jet skis and trailers
Vehicles that do not run, and anything that is not a car, are priced differently from the table above. Your quote shows the price for your vehicle.
Who does what
- Car Transport Express books and coordinates the move, and is your contact for updates the whole way through. We are not the carrier.
- A contracted carrier physically transports your car and completes the condition reports at collection and delivery.
- If there is damage or a complaint, you come to us, not to the carrier.
