Advice/Help Anyone Moving/Traveling from Brisbane to Melbourne in The Next 3 Weeks? Need to Move a Trailer to Melbourne

Hi All,

As a true Ozbarginer, I trying to move a trailer from Brisbane to Melbourne. I can have it moved by a transport company or go and get it myself (I like to drive). But I was thinking that if someone was traveling between Brisbane to Melbourne and could use the trailer I would provide them with some petrol money.

Has anyone got some advice on this? I am thinking to outside the box……again.

-Phil

    One option is to post your request on social media or online marketplaces such as Facebook Marketplace or Gumtree. You can advertise your trailer and offer to pay for petrol in exchange for someone transporting it for you. Be sure to include the specific details such as the date of the transport, the size and weight of the trailer, and any other relevant information.

    Another option is to look for ride-sharing services that allow drivers to transport goods in addition to passengers. Some popular ride-sharing services such as Car Next Door, GoGet, and DriveMyCar allow people to rent their vehicles to others. You can consider listing your trailer on these platforms and offer to pay for petrol costs for the driver.

    Lastly, you can also consider reaching out to people in your personal network who may be travelling between Brisbane and Melbourne. They may be willing to help you out and transport your trailer for a small fee.

    Whatever option you choose, make sure to communicate clearly with the person transporting your trailer, and arrange a safe and secure way to transport it.
