Heavy Haulage in Perth and Across Western Australia

AWH provides heavy machinery transport, over-dimensional transport, mine and remote transport, and full truck load freight across Western Australia. We select the service after reviewing the load, dimensions, weight, route, site access and required dates.

There is no reliable universal per-kilometre rate for heavy haulage. Price depends on the load dimensions and mass, distance, trailer and prime mover, road access, permits, pilots or escorts, loading and unloading, site conditions, timing and waiting requirements. The written quote should identify its inclusions, exclusions and assumptions.

Send the origin, destination, freight type, quantity, overall length, width, height and weight, plus the required dates. Include loading and unloading arrangements, access conditions, site contacts and induction requirements. Drawings, data sheets, site plans or clear photos help us assess unusual machinery and oversized loads.

Some oversized or overmass vehicle combinations need a Main Roads WA permit or order and may require pilot or escort vehicles. The requirements depend on the complete vehicle and load combination, route and operating conditions. We assess the proposed movement before confirming what must be arranged. See our over-dimensional transport service for the planning process.

A low loader can reduce deck height for suitable tall or heavy plant, while a drop deck with ramps can suit some drive-on and drive-off machinery. A multi-axle or deck-and-dolly setup can distribute mass for suitable heavier combinations. We choose the configuration after confirming dimensions, mass, centre of gravity, loading method, route and site access.

Confirm firm access, turning space, overhead and side clearances, site contacts, traffic controls, inductions, delivery windows and who will load or unload the freight. Tell us about soft ground, narrow gates, overhead services or restricted work areas, and send site photos or a plan when access is constrained.

Yes, AWH transports suitable heavy machinery and project freight to WA mine sites and remote destinations. We need the machine details, site name, induction and access requirements, delivery window, contacts and unloading plan before confirming the movement. Start with our mine and remote transport service.

AWH can coordinate the transport interface and identify the supporting requirements for collection and delivery. Crane, rigging, lifting or storage scope must be agreed for the specific job and should not be assumed to be included in a transport quote. Send the handling plan and site contacts so responsibilities can be confirmed.

Book as early as possible, especially for oversized loads or remote deliveries. Lead time depends on equipment availability, route checks, permits, pilot or escort requirements and site access. Send us your load details, collection and delivery locations, and preferred dates so our team can confirm availability and timing.

AWH has Perth depots in Kenwick and Maddington, Pilbara depots in Port Hedland and Karratha, and Kimberley depots in Broome, Derby, Halls Creek and Kununurra. Contact the team before visiting or arranging collection or delivery so we can confirm the correct depot, access and timing.

Compare each provider against the exact load and route. Check the available fleet, depot coverage, current safety and compliance evidence, permit and escort planning, quote inclusions, communication process, proof of delivery and reviews from similar work. Ask who owns each step before accepting the quote.
