Transport for data centre builds in Melbourne
Electrical plant, steel and site gear for data centre projects, delivered on our own trucks.
What a data centre build needs moved
A data centre is a building full of heavy plant. Before it opens, a long list of big, expensive items has to reach the site in the right order. We carry:
- switchrooms, switchboards and transformers
- generators
- cooling and air handling units
- cable drums
- structural steel and frames
- modular and prefabricated rooms
- site sheds, formwork and scaffold
If it fits on a flat tray, we can carry it.
Which truck
Smaller items that need to be set down without a site crane go on a crane truck, which lifts approx 3.5 tonnes within a 4 metre radius, and 500 to 750 kg at 10 metres, on a 7.5 m tray. Full loads and the big units go on a flat top semi, with 12.5 m or 13.7 m trailers carrying approx 20 to 24 tonnes, or on a drop deck where height matters. Anything over the general width or height limits becomes an oversize load, with permits checked per load and planned before the booking is confirmed.
Deliveries in sequence
Data centre sites run to tight delivery windows, with inductions, traffic management and crane time booked in advance. Our drivers work construction sites daily, so that's routine. For staged deliveries over weeks or months, see our page on construction logistics. If the gear arrives before the site is ready, we can hold it at our Braeside depot and deliver it when you call for it.
Across Melbourne
We deliver to every Melbourne suburb from our Braeside depot, including the industrial and data centre areas in the west and the north. Every truck carries live GPS, and each delivery comes back with proof-of-delivery photos.
Common questions
Do you transport generators and switchrooms?
Yes, along with cooling units, cable drums, steel and modular rooms. Send the size and weight of each item and we'll pick the truck.
Can you deliver to a set time slot?
Yes. Tell us the delivery window and any induction or traffic management needs when you book, and we'll plan the run around them.
Can you store equipment until the site is ready?
Yes. We can hold it at our Braeside depot and deliver it when you call for it.
How much does data centre transport cost?
Every job is quoted on the loads, distance, permits and time on site. Send the details and we'll come back with a price.
