EAST COAST TOWING & TRANSPORT
Your car's in Melbourne. We get it to Sydney safely.
If you’ve bought a car in Melbourne and you live in Sydney, sold a car to a Sydney buyer, are relocating to Sydney with the pride-and-joy, or need a show car up the Hume for a NSW event, this is the run we know best.
Melbourne to Sydney is our most-run lane. We’re up the Hume every week, often more than once. Classics, exotics, daily-driven prestige cars, lowered customs, project shells that won’t roll or steer — all of it goes inside one of our two purpose-built enclosed trailers.
No open carriers. No depot handling. No subcontractor we’ve never met loading your car after dark in Melbourne and unloading it in a yard somewhere in Western Sydney.
Bailey runs the front rig. His brother Ash runs the second. The person you book with in Melbourne is the person knocking on your door in Sydney with your car still on the trailer.
WHY CHOOSE US
Melbourne to Sydney Done Right
Fully enclosed, not open carriers.
Our trailers are rubber-sealed against weather, road grime and rock chips from the moment we close the door in Melbourne. 2.1m of internal clearance fits most exotic and tall-built vehicles. We accept cars down to 50mm ground clearance, which open carriers and most enclosed operators won’t quote.
Melbourne to Sydney inside 24 hours when the lane allows.
The Hume is a single-driver overnight run for us. Most Melbourne pickups load in the afternoon and unload at the Sydney door the next day. Tight windows around Summernats, MotorEx, the major NSW auctions and public holidays need to be locked in early.
The driver is the owner.
Every truck is driven by a Macqueen. Same person from the first phone call to the unloading ramp in Sydney. No call centres, no offshore intake teams, no broker reselling your job to whoever happens to be heading north that week.
Door-to-door, both ends.
We pick up at your door anywhere across metro Melbourne. We drop off at your door anywhere across metro Sydney, the Inner West, the Eastern Suburbs, the Hills District, Sutherland Shire, the Northern Beaches, Western Sydney, the Illawarra, the Central Coast and the Hunter.
Trusted by the auction houses and dealers.
We’re the regular enclosed carrier for Burns & Co Auctions, Chicane Auctions, 782 Motors and Australian Muscle Car Sales. If your car is sitting on a Melbourne auction floor or in a dealer’s yard waiting to head to Sydney, we can co-ordinate the pickup directly with them.
Flat pricing posture.
Our Melbourne to Sydney price is our price. No upsells at the door. No “fuel surcharge” tacked on after we’ve left Melbourne. If your job needs a priority window or unusual access at either end, we tell you up front.

“From my initial contact with Bailey to the delivery of my vehicles the service was outstanding. He took great care with everything and kept us informed along the way even putting the cars in the shed for my wife on arrival. Bailey is a credit to classic and prestige vehicle transport and I highly recommend his service.”

Enclosed trailer inside was immaculate with rubber seal all around and the cars inside traveled along the journey must have the most comfortable ride. The car arrives spotless and never been happier with the service. Thanks again Bailey 🍻”
