Why Choose Motorhome Transport Services?

Cairns sits at the far end of the east coast, and getting a motorhome there from the southern states is one of the longest drives in the country. Many owners would rather fly to Tropical North Queensland and pick up their motorhome on arrival. Professional transport also makes sense when you’re bringing a motorhome home after a season up north.

Our interstate motorhome transport service collects your motorhome in Cairns and delivers it to your chosen city, or brings it up to Far North Queensland from anywhere on our network.

Preparing Your Motorhome for Transport

To ensure safe and smooth towing, you should prepare your motorhome by doing the following:

  1. Empty all tanks – Grey water, black water, and fresh water tanks should be drained.

  2. Remove or secure personal belongings – Loose items can cause damage or become a hazard.

  3. Check for leaks – Oil, coolant, or fuel leaks should be addressed before pickup.

  4. Inflate tyres and check brakes – Even if your motorhome won’t be driven, this ensures safety during loading/unloading.

  5. Disable security alarms – Prevent false triggers during the journey.

  6. Provide spare keys and access instructions – In case adjustments are needed in transit.

These steps help avoid delays and reduce risks during transport.
