Pricing explained
How ACT Tipper Jobs Are Priced
Hourly pricing is used for supported time-based site work. Per-load pricing can be offered for a defined trip and material. Per-tonne pricing can be offered where measured weight and the job arrangement support it.
The confirmed quote identifies the truck and pricing basis and states which mobilisation, route distance, waiting, loading assistance, disposal and applicable route charges are included or separately quoted.
For Cart & Dispose, the confirmed quote includes the agreed disposal component for the declared material and scope, whether it appears within the total or is itemised within that total. See the tipper truck hire rates guide.

ACT tipper FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Where is tipper truck hire available in the ACT?
Requests can be submitted for Canberra locations including central districts, Belconnen, Gungahlin, Woden, Molonglo and Tuggeranong. Enter the exact pickup and destination because availability depends on the carrier, truck, route, access and date.
Can I request Cart & Dispose in Canberra?
Yes. Post a request for suitable material that needs to be carted away with an appropriate receiving facility included. Declare the material accurately and provide photos or classification details where required.
How is Cart & Dispose different from Transport Service?
Cart & Dispose includes an appropriate receiving destination as part of the job. Transport Service moves material to a destination you have already arranged.
How do I choose a truck configuration?
Select a truck when you know the site and payload requirements. If unsure, provide the material, quantity, loading method, access and route so Tipaload can help identify a suitable option, subject to availability.
Does tipper truck hire include a driver?
Yes. The service includes a carrier-operated truck and driver, not self-drive rental. Loading machinery, its operator and additional labour are not automatically included.
Do I receive an immediate price?
Enter the required details to check for an indicative estimate. If live pricing is returned, review it and continue to the full booking form. If automatic pricing is unavailable, use Continue Without an Estimate. Final price and truck availability are confirmed before booking, and no payment is taken on the estimate screen.
How are ACT tipper jobs priced?
Hourly pricing is used for supported time-based work, per-load pricing can suit a defined trip and material, and per-tonne pricing can be offered where measured weight and the job arrangement support it. The confirmed quote identifies the pricing basis and which mobilisation, waiting, loading, disposal and applicable route charges are included or separately quoted.
Are disposal charges included with Cart & Dispose?
The agreed disposal component forms part of the confirmed Cart & Dispose quote for the declared material and scope. It may be included within the total or separately itemised as part of that total. Changes to material or receiving requirements can require reassessment.
What if I do not know the material quantity?
Provide the material type, approximate pile or excavation dimensions and clear photos in the full booking flow where available. These details support a pre-booking estimate of the truck and expected load count. Where the job is priced using measured weight or actual loads, the billable quantity is established through the agreed job process rather than treated as known from the initial estimate.
What if I do not have loading machinery?
Add the loading requirement to the full job details and contact the Tipper enquiries line if you need equipment and an operator. Availability, scope and any additional cost must be confirmed before booking.
What information do I need for a tipper quote?
Provide the pickup and destination or disposal requirement, material type, estimated quantity or approximate dimensions, available loading equipment, site-access conditions, preferred timing and any route or receiving-site requirements.
