do not book with them, my car has been delayed to 2+ weeks, and they keep giving me an estimate delivery date and cannot guarantee when it will arrive and do not provide any help and just to wait. Show details

Thanks National Car Movers! Friendly, helpful, and straightforward service. The car even arrived a week early which worked out perfectly. We’ll be in touch again when we’re ready to move another car from Cairns to Sydney. Show details · 1

Follow-up · Nothing more to add. Your service was great and at a good price. Thank you again. I don't know how to send photos.
Follow-up · It all worked so smoothly. I'd like to use your service again, in reverse this time, to get a motorcycle from Tasmania to Caboolture South in Brisbane's north. I will get in touch again sooner to the time of pick up and transport. Would the motorcycle need to be put in a crate of some sort?

National Car Movers arranged for the transport of our Holden Trax from Perth WA to Newcastle NSW. Everything went to plan. The ongoing communication from the company and their contractors was exceptional. Very nice to be able to talk to helpful and knowledgeable people. Their quote was reasonable and the car arrived on time with no damage. Show details · 1
Follow-up · Tracking of the car online was easy and accurate. The booking was made by phone. Always great to talk to a helpful, knowledgeable person. I prepared the car. Car was transported with around a quarter of a tank of fuel with loose items within removed.

I sent a vehicle from Mackay to Melbourne. The service in Mackay was great. I was met at the gate at the Mackay depot when I dropped the car off. The gentleman that checked the car in was very helpful and answered all my enquiries. The vehicle reached its destination within the timeframe stated without any problems. I could not fault the service. I thought the cost of transport was quite reasonable. Show details · 1

Misleading practices, unsafe storage, and appalling service. I am writing this to warn anyone considering National Car Movers or Car Transport Express. My experience was a series of unprofessional hurdles, deceptive information, and financial exploitation. The "Drop-off" Deception: I was initially given a residential address for drop-off. When I… Read more
sought help, the employee ([Name Removed]) was incredibly rude, spoke over me, and eventually hung up.
Unsafe Locations: After switching to National Car Movers, I was directed to a wrecking yard/car destruction site to leave my vehicle. The site manager claimed he was "afraid of cars" and didn't know how to drive a manual. The lot was a "dust bowl" and completely unsuitable for a prized possession.
False Height Claims: Days later, [Name Removed] (Managing Director) claimed my car was too low to move (below 150mm). This was based on a "visual inspection" by the wrecking yard staff. I offered to have a third party measure it; she refused, stated her "leave was more important" than resolving the issue, and banned me from phone contact.
The Result: I was forced to fly back to Melbourne to rescue my car from an unsafe site. Upon arrival, I measured the car myself: it was well above 150mm.
Financial Hostage: Despite their refusal to move the car based on a lie, they refused a full refund, keeping a $180 "cancellation fee" for a service they failed to provide.
This company is incompetent and deceptive. They will leave your car in a junk yard, lie about its specs to avoid work, and then charge you for the privilege. Save your money and your sanity: go elsewhere.

Really poor experience. Transported my Mustang to Adelaide. Let them know it was lowered 20mm. The front bar was then damaged in transit, and when I raised the damaged claimed it was because the car was lowered and it wasn’t covered. The area damaged on the front bar was above 150mm, which they claimed was below the area that is insured. I had… Read more
to follow them up as it was in transit as there was no communication after 8 days
Would not recommend to anyone. Terrible experience.

am writing to share my positive experience with Car Mover. They proved to be highly professional, flexible, and reliable throughout the entire process. Our vehicle was delivered on time and arrived in excellent condition. I highly recommend their services for anyone looking for a dependable transport provider. Show details · 1
Dropped the car off in Brisbane on Wednesday 20th May in the afternoon with quoted delivery between 26th May - 1st June to Central Coast NSW. The driver, Jason, contacted me the following day advising that delivery would be the following morning and arranged pick up point close by. He was on time and communicated with estimated time of arrival.… Read more · 1
The car was delivered in the same condition that it was in when dropped off at Brisbane. We highly recommend this company. Can't tell you how much we appreciated the excellent service.
My initial inquiry was online. I rec'd a call within 20mins from a lovely woman by the name of Maree. She explained my options & then sent an email to make the booking. Everything went ahead as requested, I dropped the car to the depot... where, unfortunately due to heavy rain, road closures, the vehicle sat for 3wks. During this time, I made a… Read more · 1
further inquiry as to notifying me once the vehicle was on its way... as I still hadn't heard anything for more than a week, I called again... only to be told that it had just arrived that day, I thanked the woman I spoke to... she informed me that she would send the details to the receiver - which she did.
All in all, we were happy with the service & pricing - we would definitely use them again.
The service was prompt and good value for money. The car arrived in perfect condition. The pick up and delivery locations were very suitable, however they need to consider giving more than 24 hours notice for pick up and delivery as this is not always convenient. Show details · 1
Unfortunately my experience with National Car Movers was disappointing. Communication was poor throughout the booking process and I was given misleading information regarding what could be left in the vehicle. The rules around goods in the car were extremely strict and not clearly explained upfront. Due to this, I cancelled the booking and used another transport service instead Show details

If you are seeking good Customer Service then I would not recommend this company. Absolutely NO communication throughout the entire process. Happy to take your money however after that I’m afraid you’re on your own! If you desire to keep track on the progress of your car? ( which they advertise you can) then don’t hold your breath waiting!… Read more

This company in the original quote to move my car said that my car would arrive from Perth between 7-10 November 2025. I booked it in on the 8th October and after 4 emails from them for different delivery dates its now at 1 December (I will believe it when I see it)...some 6 weeks past the original date that they quoted. I firmly believe that it… Read more
was never intended to arrive at what was originally quoted and that it was a hook to suck us in. They quoted a truck breakdown ...however that does not equate to a 6-week delay. I am hiring a car at $64 a day so am out of pocket a considerable amount over this period and they get to hide behind the good ole..." your date of delivery may change and no penalty on us ". Take my advice and stay away from this pack of amateurs and pay the extra for an alternative carrier. I couldn't do the review without selecting 1 star and would have chosen negative values if i could.
Car dropped off at depot with no issues. Communication and updates along the way. Car arrived earlier than expected. No issues. Great service. Would definitely use again. Show details · 1
I booked vehicle transport with National Car Movers in early October 2025. The experience started well, with friendly communication, but things quickly fell apart once delays set in. Despite repeated assurances, my vehicle collection kept being pushed back due to “freight scheduling.” After waiting far longer than expected — with no confirmed… Read more
pickup date — I had no choice but to cancel.
To my surprise, I was charged a 40% cancellation fee even though no transport service was actually carried out. I later learned this was hidden in attached “Terms and Conditions” documents that were never discussed or highlighted during booking.
It’s disappointing to see a company so unwilling to show fairness or accountability for delays that were entirely outside the customer’s control.
I’ve since noticed other reviews describing similar experiences, which makes me think this isn’t an isolated case.

Rang up & received a quote of $553 from Brisbane to Melbourne. Rang back a week later & told them the height of the car was 120mm & the quote increased to $1073. An additional $500 for them having to use ramps!! Greedy people indeed. Show details

Very Professional Service. Car arrived a little earlier than estimated. Good communication. Well co-ordinated amongst multiple carriers. Tracking Service could be automated to enable a more immediate response on actual location of car en route. Thankyou National Car Movers. Show details · 1
