When we moved to Canberra, we quickly realised how challenging it was to organise delivery for items bought off Facebook Marketplace.
We’d find exactly what we needed—furniture, appliances, household items—but had no easy way to get them across the city. No ute, no trailer, and no straightforward local service that didn’t cost a fortune or come with a long wait.
At one point, things got so tricky that I found myself in an awkward situation—asking a complete stranger at an op shop if they had a ute and if I could pay them to deliver my couch.
It became clear this wasn’t just our problem. Many people in Canberra face the same issue: they’ve arranged a pickup but have no simple, affordable way to get it across the city.
That’s why we started this service.
We offer flat-fee weekend deliveries across Canberra for Facebook Marketplace buyers and sellers. For $85, we’ll collect and deliver your item—no quotes, no back-and-forth, no awkward favours.
Just a reliable, local solution when you need it most.
