There are plenty of trucking companies out there and it might feel daunting to know where to start in your journey. Depending on the size and experience of the trucking company you choose they will be able to offer you a variety of services and usually tailor them to your specific needs.
These needs might vary from job to job, and it’s important to understand exactly what kind of transportation support you need before you start to do your research on trucking companies.
When you do start to dig into the many options, also consider:
- The company’s safety record: learn about their safety checks and processes and how they ensure their drivers are safe on the roads.
- How long they’ve been in business: reliability is often based on experience and the more time a company has to learn the better they will be at getting your goods to where they need to be.
- The trucking company’s vehicles: the number and kind of vehicles a company has in their fleet is a good reflection of how reliable they will be.
Most trucking companies in Australia will offer the following services:
Interstate transportation
Moving goods between states requires hours of driving, but it can also require hours of preparation. You may be moving a house full of furniture or a container full of exhibition gear from state to state. Companies who offer this service will understand the best routes to get your things where they need to be on time and in one piece.
Bulk trucks
If you’ve got a lot to move and need more than one truck to deliver to multiple destinations then look for a company who can help you with a bulk truck delivery.
Home delivery
Home delivery is the most personal kind of delivery service. If you’re delivering stock to people’s homes then your transport company is an extension of your business – it matters how it arrives and how the delivery is made. Equally, if you’re sending something to a loved one you want it to get there safely.
Parcel trucks and taxi trucks
A taxi truck is a bit like a courier service – you can call the company you choose at short notice, and request a taxi or parcel truck to pick up and deliver on the same day, or on a day you specify. It’s all in the name – taxi truck delivery services work for parcels like a taxi service does for people.

Researching trucking companies can be daunting and arduous, but knowing what services to look for when researching should help demystify the process.
