What we do

What we don't do

Drop-X shows the price upfront and takes bookings online, so you do not wait for a quote. Every delivery has different requirements; Drop-X handles the logistics behind the scenes and brings the simplicity of online shopping to courier bookings.

Interstate express freight
These Melbourne–Sydney, Melbourne–Adelaide and Melbourne–Canberra road freight routes operate in both directions and are quoted individually. They are separate from the regional Victorian corridors above: a booking on an interstate route does not include an onward regional delivery or a guaranteed transfer.
Interstate consignments are quoted separately and run as dedicated express jobs, never backloaded with other people’s freight. Exact addresses, freight, handling needs, timing and vehicle availability must be confirmed before acceptance.
Compare interstate express services and quote requirementsExplore business freight services for regional routes. Timing, loading and vehicle availability are checked per booking; trucks are quoted separately.
Express runs between Melbourne and 31 regional centres, from Mildura to Lakes Entrance, and from Geelong and the Peninsula to nearby centres, each direction on its own page.

Learn moreYes. Drop-X takes same-day regional courier and freight requests from Melbourne to 74 cities and towns on 6 corridors across Gippsland, Western and Northern Victoria, the south-west coast, the High Country and the NSW border. Regional courier jobs are priced as the item rate plus $1.95 per km of road distance beyond the included kilometres (20 km for small items, 50 km with a pallet), with kilometres beyond 100 at $2.50, all inc GST. Trucks are quoted separately.
Express. Drop-X runs each regional job as a dedicated trip by road: the driver who collects your freight takes it straight to the delivery address, never on a line-haul truck, through a depot or cross-dock, or on a backload with other freight.
Yes. Drop-X takes regional freight bookings in either direction, so a business in a regional town can send parcels, parts or pallets into Melbourne. Give dispatch both addresses and the freight details so it can confirm the vehicle, timing and price.
Yes. Businesses based elsewhere in Australia can request a business delivery between addresses in Drop-X's Victorian coverage. Give dispatch both Victorian addresses, the freight details and requested date so it can assess the route. This does not mean Australia-wide delivery.
Measured by road from the Melbourne GPO on Google Maps: Ballarat 115 km, Bendigo 153 km, Traralgon 165 km, Shepparton 190 km, Warrnambool 257 km, Albury 326 km and Mildura 544 km. Every town's distance is listed on its corridor page. Regional jobs are priced on the road distance for the actual pickup and delivery addresses, so a quote can differ from these figures.
No. A corridor listing helps identify a route for an enquiry, not a confirmed booking. Drop-X dispatch checks the exact pickup and delivery addresses, freight, timing and available vehicle before confirming a service; truck requests are assessed and quoted separately.
