Compare Courier Services in Hobart

Courier services in Hobart range from same day deliveries across town to parcels heading over Bass Strait, and each courier prices its routes differently. Booking with one courier directly only shows you that courier's price.

Pacer Logistics compares live rates across 50+ Australian couriers, so one search shows the couriers that service your Hobart pickup or delivery and lets you weigh price against the estimated delivery date. Each result shows the price in AUD, including GST, fuel and fees.

If your pickup or delivery is elsewhere in Tasmania, enter the full address to see which couriers service it. Regional and remote addresses usually cost more, so your quote is the best guide.

Sending To and From Hobart

Parcels between Hobart and the mainland have to cross Bass Strait, so prices and estimated delivery dates can differ from mainland interstate routes and vary from one courier to the next. Comparing them side by side shows the trade-off between price and speed before you book.

If you're sending a courier to Hobart from a mainland capital city, enter both addresses to compare the options for that route. Interstate quotes can include road express, air freight and premium priority options where they're available, and results are tagged Cheapest and Fastest so you can see the trade-off at a glance.

Sending fruit, plants or seeds? Tasmania has its own biosecurity rules for what can come into the state; see the FAQs below before you book.

Sending From Hobart: What to Know

Home and Business Pickups

Pickups can be from a home or a business. If either address is a home, switch on residential pickup or residential drop-off when you quote. Residential addresses usually cost more, so this keeps your price accurate.

Choose Your Pickup Date

Add a preferred pickup date if you have one. Each result shows when the courier collects, which helps when you're timing a delivery across Bass Strait.

Real People, Weekday Hours

Need a hand? Our team is available by phone and email, Monday to Friday, 9am to 6pm Sydney time, and usually replies to enquiries within an hour during those hours. Hobart is on the same time as Sydney all year, including daylight saving, so those are your local hours too.

Hobart Courier FAQs

Does Pacer have a courier depot or office in Hobart?

No. Pacer Logistics is an online platform, so there's no Hobart depot or counter to visit. You book online, and the courier you choose collects from your address and delivers directly.

Choose Pallet in the quote tool and enter both addresses; the results show which pallet couriers service the route. A single bulky item is best booked as a pallet. If you need a forklift or tail-lift at either end, ask for it when you book, because the courier won't bring one otherwise. See Pallet & Freight Courier for how to prepare a pallet.

Standard bookings within Australia, including between Tasmania and the mainland, include a transit warranty of up to $350. If your parcel is worth more, you can add extra cover of up to $100,000 at checkout, before you pay. Some items are excluded, so read Shipment Cover first.

Tasmania restricts many plants and plant products coming into the state, including fruit, vegetables and seeds, and some items need to be inspected by a Biosecurity Tasmania officer. Check what you can and can't bring into Tasmania before you book, and if you're in doubt, don't send it.
