Car Transport
Car Transportation
Cost: Between $350.00 to 1,250.00
Although some may select to drive their car interstate when moving home, others prefer to fly and have the car transported by a reputable car carrier which Transcorp organizes. The prices vary quite a bit based on 1) Depot to Depot or Door to Door 2) Remote Locations 3) Size and make of vehicle. As part of our home removal service we offer this service. Visit Transcorp Car Moving for more information of call 1300 466 838 and chat to our friendly and qualified representative.
Removal Insurance
Cost: Between $250 – $1,000
Regardless how careful the removalists are, there are circumstances where insurance is a wise option to consider. There are situations where it may be not the fault of the removal team and taking out insurance offers a ‘replacement value’ rather than without insurance which may be on ‘market value’ or ‘depreciated cost’ depending on age of the item. It is wise to only insure through an AFRA accredited removal member as they can on sell the policy due to adhering to strict guidelines. Refer to Transcorp Insuarnce for more information

FAQs for Interstate Removalists
What is backloading, and how does it work?
Backloading involves sharing truck space with other customers moving in the same direction. It’s a cost-effective solution that ensures you only pay for the space your items occupy.
Is backloading safe for fragile items?
Yes! Our professional removalists ensure all items are securely packed and handled with care during transit.
How much can I save with backloading?
Customers typically save between 20-30% compared to traditional removalist services.
What’s the cheapest way to move interstate?
Combining a backloading removal option with self-packing and decluttering is often the most affordable approach. A move can aid in optimising your life, as it enables you to get rid of stuff you no longer need nor use. It is the ideal time to do a “spring clean”, when you combine this with our backloading option you can significantly reduce your move cost, in some cases this can be thousands. Check our backloading page for more information.
Furniture was picked up when they advised it would. Shane in Qld couldn't have been more patient trying to contact my son to make the delivery. Thank you Shane for your perseverance.
I recently moved with Transcorp Removals, and I can confidently say they went above and beyond to make the experience smooth and stress-free. As a wheelchair user, I had specific needs and concerns, but their team was incredibly accommodating, professional, and attentive to every detail.
From start to finish, they handled everything with care, ensuring my belongings were safely transported and placed exactly where I needed them. The team was punctual, friendly, and highly efficient, making what could have been a stressful day so much easier.
I highly recommend Transcorp Removals to anyone looking for a reliable moving company, especially if you have accessibility requirements. Thank you for making my move a seamless and positive experience!
I couldn't rate Transcorp less than 5 stars. From first contact their customer focus really stood out, and it continued through our relocation and to top it off a personal phone call after all was completed just to check in. If you are looking to relocate and need top-class transport and service, don't hesitate to give the team at Transcorp a call.
Our move from Boronia to Parkville was very smooth and stress-free. The movers were very efficient and friendly. They went above and beyond to make sure all furnitures and boxes are delivered in good order. We're impressed!
The team arrived on time in Melbourne and, despite it being stinking hot, were lovely and efficient in loading and they wrapped the furniture well. A week later another friendly and efficient team delivered to me in Hobart at the arranged time. Good communication and and the price was 40% of what two other companies had quoted.
Thank you for your excellent customer service, transport and communication with me during my major move from Melbourne to Qld. It was a very emotional time for me and Transcorp made the move so much easeir than I expected. Thank you to the drivers as well, so professional and friendly. Everything has arrived in good order and I thank you for that. I would definitely recommend Transcorp for anyone considering removalists.
Very easy to deal with. They were more than happy to price match for me as well to make sure I got the best deal. They were also happy to answer any and all questions I had.
Unfortunately I was unable to proceed with my freight booking due to circumstances beyond my control. I DO however want to impress upon management how great my experience has been going through with my 'order' as far as I was able. Katrina has been an awesome ambassador/representative for this business and I will most definitely be recommending Transcorp to any and all who may need your services. Of course Transcorp will be my only call in the future for my own freight needs. Katrina is thorough, polite, delivers excellent follow up contact, is clear about any and all details of the booking process and really just makes it all so easy.
John and the team at Transcorp were more than helpful in organizing and carrying out a very complex office/furniture removal From Sydney CBD to Melbourne Warehouse. Very helpful and very professional at both ends of the job.
Professional from the start ,arrived as scheduled and straight into loading the Van,never missed a beat. Courteous to us and gentle to our furniture. Moved from bush back to big smoke and the removalists unphased by challenges of parking the Van close to new residence. Again took it in there stride. First Class Effort by Peter and hard working side kick Chris. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Melinda and jimA
Transcorp Removalists are by far the best removals company we have dealt with and we’ve had a few moves over the years. From our first phone call to Lilly in the office who could not be more helpful with our late notice phone call after many other companies had knocked us back because of the Christmas New Year holidays. The boys who did the move were amazing they were so professional it actually made it enjoyable a big thankyou to Phil and the team. I would definitely recommend this company to anyone considering a move.
The two men that picked up the furniture were so lovely, especially as it was a dreadfully hot day. The were positive and friendly and got things done in a timely manner. Thankyou
Used Transcorp for a move from Canberra to Murrays Beach. Stan was an absolute gem assisting us in sorting our needs for the size of the move, the dates, insurance , and general handy hints! The uplift and the unload teams were fantastic, friendly hardworking blokes. And the best part - on setting up in the new house, no goods had been broken or damaged in any way. A thoroughly professional outfit, highly recommend Transcorp
I cannot recommend Transcorp highly enough. Nothing was too much trouble, from the moment i rang to enquire the sales rep Liliana did everything to accommodate me and make our move as smooth as possible. She walked me through step by step even assisting with taking my inventory over the phone as I walked from room to room to avoid having to fill out confusing and time consuming forms at a time I was already extremely overwhelmed. Liliana and Transcrop handled everything from furniture removal, pet transport, car carrier and even storage on the other end. Through the whole process, nothing was ever too much hassle and they worked with me and accommodated every change, concern and request. I cannot thank Stan, Liliana & Lynn enough for helping me, my family & fur babies to relocate, making what was an extremely stressful and worrying time, a breeeze. They took all the stress and worry off me and allowed me to just focus on myself and kids. Thank you Transcorp for helping us start our new life stress and worry free.
I dealt with Lilly at Transcorp, who made the decision so easy for me to trust them with my possessions, every step of the way Lilly was on the other end of the phone. Thank you to Marty for moving heaven and earth to have my belongings to be delivered on the day I had requested...... OMG they are just wonderful 👍
Wilson & his sidekick ‘Mouse’ were fantastic removalists from the pack up, the loading & subsequent delivering & unloading. Very thorough & professional. Thank you. The office was efficient with all the admin pre & post move. Great service.
The experience was fantastic there job was professional highly recommended. They picked all my home furniture and drop if off and no damage and they loocked after the furniture. So happy with service they provided
In addition to the removal price per se being very fair the men who came to load the furniture on they were honest, hardworking and very professional. They made moving a lot more pleasurable. Thank you
Fotini was amazing arranging delivery of my new furniture. My deliver timeline was up in the air as I was waiting on the premises to be vacated. Fotini took it in her stride and kept in touch until a date was confirmed. Talk about taking the stress out of my move. Thanks once again.
When organising my uplift, l had lots going on but Katrina was so patient and we sorted it all including the change of uplift date due to me coming down with Covid. I was grateful Adam and his offsider were patient and helpful removalists. They fitted my belongings in the truck like a jigsaw puzzle with protective covers on everything. Relatives were on hand to meet the delivery and direct what was required in the house and what was to be packed in the storage container. Nothing was too much trouble and the speed of the delivery was great. It enabled family to be there out of their working hours. Thanks all round for a less stressful move than l imagined. Five stars. Your staff take pride in what they do and it shows. Thank you.
An easy experience using Tanscorp to have family handcrafted furniture moved from Northern Tasmania to an address in Victoria and another in NSW. Good communication at all times.
Great company to deal with. Good communication, punctual service and efficient operators. Our possessions aware stored for three months and transported from mid coast Qld to Eastern Victoria and everything arrived intact. Highly recommended
I used Transcorp to move my household goods from Melbourne to Hobart, and the service exceeded my expectations. The teams responsible for both pickup and delivery were highly professional, friendly, and efficient. From my experience, the key to a successful move is clear communication—if you provide all the necessary instructions and stay in touch, everything runs smoothly. Thanks again to the entire team for making the move hassle-free!
From the first call and through many inventory updates I always felt comfortable with the professional service. When it came time for the a actual collection of my parents deceased estate items the removalists assisted with advise on packing and protection to the antique items. Their expertise in loading the truck ensures all items arrived without so much as a scratch... even the china cabinet... so happy with my choice to use Transcorp... thank you so much
Transcorp were excellent in moving my contents from Victoria to Queensland. The arrival time was spot on, packaging and unpacking was excellent and I would highly recommend Transcorp to anyone. All goods arrived in excellent condition. Well done.
Absolutely incredible service that is so rare to find. Office staff were amazing, patient and accommodating. The men collecting the furniture were efficient, careful and very helpful. I could not be happier. Sandra Devon
Like to thank Transcorp and team, Rick and Sammy for a great, sensational, excellent job on moving my furniture and being so professional, looking after me. I would hire Transcorp again, you can see how perfectionist, experienced and knowledgeable they were. I was scared and freaking out that something was going to go wrong, and be damaged. In the pass had bad experiences with removalists but in the future Transcorp have showed, proven and delivered high professional standards. I please recommend everyone contacting and choosing Transcorp. Best, great wishes always Team Transcorp.
Professional, very friendly and accommodating staff in all areas of the business. Would highly recommend Transcorp to others and, would strongly consider using the services of Transcorp again in the future.
Had an awesome team today. They were kind and understanding, through my stress. All teams have been amazing, this is our 4th truck in 3 months. Wouldn't go anywhere else now. Even the lovely admin team are terrific. Thank you.
Transcorp were brilliant, Lilly was wonderful to deal with and accommodated all of my requests for my father's recent move. Will be defiantly using them again for my next move.
