Warehouse & Distribution Courier Melbourne

Missed cut-offs, overflow orders and urgent stock transfers don't fit a scheduled linehaul. Drop-X gives warehouses, DCs and 3PLs an on-demand courier arm — same-day pallet and carton freight between sites, stores and end customers across Melbourne and Victoria.

What we don't do

No personal or household deliveries — business freight only.

Keeping our scope tight is how we deliver every job reliably. Drop-X does not handle:

  • Household moves & furniture removals
  • Residential addresses are accepted for business-related freight only. Personal deliveries are not available.
  • Airfreight & seafreight
  • Perishables needing refrigerated trucks. We don’t run temperature-controlled vehicles.
  • Narrow time-slot bookings

We simplified the complexity behind courier pricing

Every delivery has different requirements. Drop-X handles the logistics behind the scenes and brings the simplicity of online shopping to courier bookings — clear pricing, easy checkout, and delivery confirmation in minutes.

The traditional courier process

  1. Request a quote
  2. Answer questions about your delivery
    • Where is it going?
    • What are you sending?
    • How large is it?
    • When do you need it?
  3. Wait while the price is calculated
  4. Approve the quote and arrange the booking

The result

  • Waiting for a response
  • Unclear final pricing
  • Back-and-forth calls and emails

The Drop-X process

  1. Enter your delivery details
  2. Our system calculates the logistics
    • Pickup and delivery locations
    • Freight requirements
    • Service option
  3. See your price instantly
  4. Book online and receive confirmation

The result

  • Price upfront
  • No waiting for quotes
  • Simple online checkout

Courier pricing can be complex behind the scenes, but booking your delivery shouldn’t be. Drop-X manages the logistics for you, providing clear upfront pricing and simple online booking in minutes.

The on-demand arm of your distribution network

Scheduled carriers are efficient until something falls outside the schedule — an urgent B2B order after the cut-off, a stock imbalance between DCs, a priority customer who can't wait until tomorrow's run. Drop-X plugs that gap for warehouses across Melbourne's industrial west, north and south-east: one call, a dedicated vehicle, and freight at the destination dock within hours, not days.

Built for pallet freight

Our fleet covers everything a distribution operation moves — single cartons in cars, mixed loads in vans, and CHEP, Loscam and Euro pallets on one-tonne trays and tail-lift pantechs. Fixed per-pallet pricing means your team can book without waiting on a quote, and freight accounts add invoice terms, consolidated billing and priority dispatch for regular volume.

What we typically move

  • CHEP, Loscam and Euro pallet transfers
  • DC-to-DC stock rebalancing
  • Urgent B2B orders after carrier cut-off
  • Store replenishment and emergency restocks
  • 3PL overflow and peak-season capacity
  • Returns and reverse logistics runs
  • Mixed carton and satchel deliveries
  • Cross-dock and import container overflow

Frequently asked questions

Can you move pallets between warehouses same day?

Yes. Pallet transfers between metro Melbourne sites are typically collected within the hour and delivered same day. Standard pallets are $110 inc GST metro, with tail-lift vehicles and pallet jacks available for docks without a forklift.

We missed our carrier cut-off — can you deliver today?

That's one of our most common jobs. Call 1300 973 038, a driver collects from your dock within the hour, and the order is delivered same day anywhere in metro Melbourne — or into regional Victoria on the same run.

Do you support 3PLs during peak periods?

Yes. 3PLs and fulfilment centres use Drop-X as overflow capacity during sales peaks and carrier disruptions. There are no contracts or minimums — book vehicles job by job at fixed published rates, or set up an account for volume pricing.

What pallet types and weights can you carry?

CHEP, Loscam, Euro and custom pallets up to 1000kg each, with oversized pallets up to 2400mm long. Max 4 Euro or 2 standard pallets per vehicle — for larger consignments we dispatch multiple vehicles or a pantech.

Can you deliver from our Melbourne DC to regional Victoria?

Yes. Same-day and next-day runs to Geelong, Ballarat, Bendigo and towns across regional Victoria with fixed pricing by destination, starting from $330 inc GST.

Do you work outside business hours?

Yes — after-hours, overnight, weekend and public holiday transfers are available, which suits DCs that prefer moving stock when the dock is quiet. Dispatch answers every day of the year.
