Maximum payload depends on the truck, trailer, freight dimensions, axle loading, route access and applicable legal mass limits.

As an indicative guide:

• Flat Top Trailer: approximately 24–27 tonnes
• Tautliner Trailer: approximately 22–25 tonnes
• Specialised Rigid Truck: approximately 8–12 tonnes
• Rigid Delivery Truck: approximately 6–10 tonnes
• Standard Skeletal Trailer: approximately 26–29 tonnes
• Lightweight Skeletal Trailer: approximately 28–30 tonnes

These figures are indicative only and should not be treated as guaranteed legal payloads. Actual allowable weight depends on the complete vehicle combination, freight, axle configuration and route requirements.

For current Australian heavy vehicle mass information, refer to the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator.

The appropriate load restraint method depends on the freight, vehicle and loading arrangement. Loads need to be positioned and restrained correctly so they remain stable throughout transport.

Different freight may require straps, chains, vehicle structures, blocking or other suitable restraint methods.

For further information about Australian load restraint requirements, refer to the NHVR Load Restraint Guide.

Providing accurate information helps our team assess the job and allocate suitable equipment.

Where possible, provide:

• Collection and delivery locations including any access restrictions.
• Freight type and a description of what is being transported.
• Dimensions including length, width and height where relevant.
• Approximate weight of the freight or load.
• Loading and unloading arrangements at both locations.
• Collection and delivery timing including fixed booking windows.
• Special requirements that may affect the vehicle, trailer or route required.

Providing these details early helps reduce delays and allows the most suitable transport setup to be planned for the job.
