Bass Strait Shipping across the Hobart
Moving between Tasmania and the mainland means crossing Bass Strait, and that crossing is always a separate leg from the road moves on either side. Options range from a self-drive roll-on/roll-off booking on the Spirit of Tasmania (a truck and its load, ferry from Devonport) to a sea freight container (less-than-container or full-container-load) if you are not driving the truck across yourself. We handle the Hobart packing and pickup, help you understand the freight options (Spirit of Tasmania departs from Devonport, roughly 280km from Hobart; sea freight container terminals add their own lead time), and coordinate the timing so the pickup and the sailing are on the same plan. We do not quote Bass Strait freight prices as they vary by operator, timing, container size and season — but we will help you understand the full picture before you commit.
