Vehicle transport Perth
Perth is a rail city, not a road city, and that single fact governs everything about moving a vehicle here. Our depot sits at Kewdale because that is where the transcontinental rail terminal is.

Vehicles from the eastern states travel by rail across the Nullarbor for the long middle section, with road at each end. That is why a Sydney to Perth move costs what it does rather than roughly double, and it is why the corridor departs weekly rather than daily. Missing a departure costs seven days, so book three to four weeks out. The other Perth-specific fact is quarantine: every vehicle entering Western Australia is inspected, and a dirty undercarriage means a cleaning fee, a re-inspection fee and lost days. Read the WA quarantine checklist before you send anything. Metro access is generally excellent: wide roads, generous verges, and very little of the inner-city constraint you get in Sydney or Melbourne.
