Courier and Freight Services in Hobart

Packing and Shipping for Individuals

Whether you're selling items online, relocating within Tasmania or sending a gift to family on the mainland, our Moonah team can pack and ship items of all sizes. We use quality materials and tailored packaging so your goods arrive safely. Same-day courier options are available for urgent deliveries within the Hobart metro area, alongside standard and express interstate courier services to all Australian capitals and regional centres.

Business Freight and Logistics

For businesses across Moonah, Glenorchy and the wider Hobart region, we provide scheduled freight pickups, document delivery and ongoing logistics solutions tailored to your operations. Moonah's mix of commercial offices, government departments and light industrial premises along Charles Street and Sunderland Street means many local businesses rely on regular, dependable freight support. Corporate accounts are available for organisations with recurring shipping needs.

Fragile, Bulky and Specialty Items

We handle items that standard couriers often won't — artwork, antiques, electronics, medical equipment and oversized furniture. Our team builds custom packaging solutions on-site, including foam-in-place protection and timber crating for high-value or unusually shaped goods. If it needs extra care during transit, bring it to our Moonah service centre and we'll work out the safest way to get it there.

International Shipping and Excess Baggage

Ship from Hobart to over 220 countries via air or sea freight. We manage all customs documentation and offer both economy and express options for personal effects, commercial goods and bulk shipments. Our excess baggage service is a practical alternative to airline fees — ideal for travellers, University of Tasmania students heading overseas or anyone relocating internationally from southern Tasmania.
