How this Aussie startup is disrupting the car transport industry by empowering small business owners

PRESS RELEASE

Due to the sheer size of Australia, and the distance between major cities, the need for using transport services has become vital for relocating or moving items interstate, particularly when time is of the essence.

Finding a reliable carrier with availability is often very challenging, with some having over a month lead time on interstate deliveries.

Upmove is here to change that. With their innovative technology and booking platform, this startup is making it easy to compare and book local family-owned and operated transport providers with immediate availability online. This means you get exceptional service at a great price exactly when you need it – all from one place.

Empowering small business owners

Upmove hasn’t only been great for customers – for vehicle transport providers across Australia, Upmove opens the door to thousands of customers every month that would have previously been out of reach.

With over 300 small businesses already operating on the platform, Upmove is a reliable way for them to obtain bookings and continue to build their businesses.

“We’re proud to unlock opportunities for smaller operators they wouldn’t normally have access to, and at the same time provide a more personal and high-quality experience for customers. It’s a Win-Win.” – Ed Burton, Upmove Co-founder & CEO

 

Offering an exceptional service

The level of service provided by these small operators is exceptional. Hands on, local, and they work with each customer on an individual basis. The level of service is reflected in Upmove’s average rating of 9.7/10. Having completed over 2000+ bookings since their launch, this startup is paving the way to hassle free moves for all Aussies.

If you need to move a vehicle anywhere in Australia, try Upmove to find and compare reliable car transport providers ready to help with your relocation.
