Description
Affordable entry into the Melbourne-Sydney linehaul market. This semi-trailer operation runs 4-5 nights per week under contract to a well-known regional freight forwarder.
Business Details:
- Route: Melbourne to Sydney and return
- Frequency: 4 nights standard, 5th night available during peak periods
- Contract type: Ongoing with 6-month notice clause
- Relationship: 5 years with current carrier
Equipment Included:
- 2019 Mack Anthem 64T prime mover (approximately 720,000km, well maintained)
- 2018 Freighter 45ft curtainsider trailer
- All compliance and safety equipment
Weekly Financial Summary:
- Gross revenue: $6,800 (4-night average)
- Fuel: approximately $2,400/week
- Insurance: approximately $380/week
- Maintenance fund: approximately $450/week
- Rego/permits: approximately $110/week
- Net profit: approximately $3,460/week
- Annual net: approximately $180,000
This is a more affordable entry point than B-double operations, requiring only an HC licence rather than MC. The carrier is open to the new operator eventually upgrading to B-double for higher revenue, but there is no pressure to do so.
The 4-night schedule offers a better work-life balance than typical 5-night runs, with the option to pick up additional nights during peak freight seasons (pre-Christmas, EOFY).
Reason for Sale: Owner has purchased a larger fleet operation and can no longer drive this run personally.
Training: 1-week ride-along handover included. Carrier depot introductions arranged.
Priced at approximately 1.5x annual net - competitive for the route quality and equipment condition.
