HEAVY HAULAGE

Moving Heavy Freight Across Australia

Shifting heavy machinery, oversized equipment or over-dimensional loads takes the right trailer and a team that understands Australian regulations. Ozcoast Logistics has moved heavy and oversized freight across the country for years, getting each job done properly and on time.

Our fleet of floats, low-loaders, drop decks and extendable trailers carries everything from excavators and drilling rigs to bridge beams and prefabricated buildings. We secure and balance every load correctly, manage the permits and escorts, and deliver to capital cities and remote mine sites alike. For freight that exceeds legal limits see our oversized loads service, and we also move containers and general freight nationwide.
