Full-Service Removalists from Brisbane to Mackay

What the Brisbane to Mackay trip involves

The road from Brisbane to Mackay is about 970 km, and the drive takes roughly 11-12 hours up the Bruce Highway. That is the highway portion of the job. Around it we wrap furniture that needs protection, load at the Brisbane address, take the load north and unload at your Mackay place.

You decide what you keep for yourself and what you hand to us. Some customers pack every box, then we take the loading and the drive. Others pass the packing over as well. We quote from a furniture list rather than by the hour.

Ring 1300 303 333 when you have both addresses and that list ready.

Affordable Prices for Quality Service

How we match the truck to the load

We match the truck to the load, choosing the 4.5 tonne that holds 20-25 cubic metres or the 10 tonne that holds 50-60 cubic metres. The quote for the whole run then follows that list, plus the work at each address.

Stairs, a long carry from where the truck can stand, or tight access at either end change that work, so those notes belong with the list. Contact us with both addresses and we will price the move from that picture.

If the dates can flex and the load does not need a truck to itself, backloading is worth discussing. Your belongings use spare space on a truck already heading the same way, and the quote reflects the room they take. It depends on space and timing for that job, so we treat it as an option rather than promising a departure.

Moving to Mackay, Qld

Arriving in Mackay

Mackay sits on the Pioneer River on the Coral Sea coast, in the Mackay-Whitsunday sugar country. After the Bruce Highway run, the last part of the job is getting the truck to your street and carrying furniture inside.

We plan that unloading from the delivery address, not from the city name. Where the truck can stand and how far the carry is will shape that end of the move. Mention those with the furniture list when you get in touch.

Moving help around this highway run

  • Local Removals

    Local Movers

    A Brisbane local job is a shorter booking than this run north. We still match the truck to the load, and you can keep the packing yourself or pass it to us.

  • Interstate Removals

    Interstate Removals

    Mackay is in Queensland, so this run stays inside the state. When a later move does cross a border, we quote that interstate job from the furniture list as well.

  • Packing and Unpacking

    Packing & Unpacking

    We can pack, load, transport, unload and unpack, or leave the boxes with you and take the furniture from the door. When we pack, we bring boxes, blankets, shrink wrap and tape.

  • Office Removalists

    Office Removalists

    We move office furniture and packed equipment between Brisbane and Mackay. An after-hours option is available when a daytime commercial load would interrupt the working day.

  • Storage

    Storage

    We can store goods when you have to leave Brisbane before the Mackay address is ready. Include what needs storing so we can quote the removal and the storage together.

Contact Us to Get Started

Before anything is booked

Customers rate Primove 4.9 stars from 71 Google reviews. We would rather talk through a dedicated truck, a possible backload, packing help and storage with you before you book.

You can reach us on 1300 303 333 with both addresses and what is going north. We will work from that conversation to a per-job quote.

What we handle on this run

  • Transit insurance for the trip

    Transit insurance is available while your goods travel. We explain what applies to your job when we put the quote together.

  • Both addresses in the same plan

    We organise the Brisbane collection and the Mackay unloading together. Access notes at both ends go into the same per-job quote.

  • A price built from the load

    We quote the complete run from the furniture list and the work you want done at each address. This highway job is not charged like a local hourly move.

  • Pianos and antiques on the list

    If a piano or an antique is going north, it belongs on the furniture list so we can include that work in the quote.

Questions before a Brisbane to Mackay move

How do you pick the truck for a Brisbane to Mackay load?

We match the truck to the furniture list, using the 4.5 tonne or the 10 tonne. The highway portion is about 970 km and roughly 11-12 hours. Loading and unloading sit around that drive.

What can I pay with?

You can pay by major credit card, cash or bank transfer.

What if there are stairs or awkward access?

Stairs and a difficult path from the truck to the door add work at that address. We use the access at both ends, with the furniture list, when we prepare the per-job quote.

Who does the packing?

You can hand us all the packing, only selected rooms, or none of it if you would rather pack yourself. Unpacking at the Mackay end can go on the same job.

Can goods be insured while they travel?

Yes. Transit insurance is available for this highway job. We talk through what applies when we prepare the quote.

When should I get in touch to book?

Once you have dates, both addresses and a furniture list, we can quote the job. If the dates can move, we can also check whether a backload has space that fits. We do not promise a set departure.

Glenn O'Shannessy · Google review, May 2026
Moving can be an incredibly stressful experience, but Primove made it much more manageable. My family and I recently booked them to help us move to a new house; from the beginning, it felt like we had nothing to worry about. The customer service was excellent – the team responded quickly to our questions and requests, despite how busy they were. They also took great care to ensure all our items were transported safely and arrived in the exact condition we left them in. Highly recommend Primove to anyone looking for an efficient, reliable and stress-free move!
