Whatever the job, we tailor the transport around it.
Overload is the fleet behind Australia's freight companies — dedicated trucks and drivers on demand, from a 1-tonne van to a B-double, often at little to no notice. If we don't have it, we'll find it.
What we do
One call for trucks, drivers and backup.
A national fleet-support and contract-logistics provider, Overload procures vehicles of any size — often at little to no notice — so major freight companies never miss a run.

Extra trucks and drivers the moment your own fleet is stretched — breakdowns, peaks and overflow covered, often with little to no notice.

From Melbourne to every mainland capital.
We're Melbourne-based, with most of our drivers local — but our reach isn't. We cover metro and regional Victoria daily, run direct line-haul to every mainland capital, and source operators interstate whenever a job calls for it.

- Regional Victoria — local drivers, regional operators on request
- Interstate line-haul — Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide & Perth
- National reach — almost any vehicle, almost anywhere

From a van to a B-double — one phone call.
We run and source the complete range of vehicles and trailers, each with a licensed, inducted driver — so you get the right size for the job without owning and maintaining the fleet.
- Vans, rigids, rigid-and-dog and prime movers
- Tautliners, pantechs, tray, drop-deck and mezzanine trailers
- Crane trucks, tail-lifts, refrigerated and side-loader options
- Single, semi and B-double configurations
