Default Car transport for non-starting car

G'day all, anyone know of a car transport company that will take a car from SYdney to Gladstone (qld), but here comes the hard part... the car is a non-starter. The companies I have called will only take cars under their own power.

I am looking to buy the car and have shipped up here

thanks

Trying general transport companies.

Some of the smaller companies that have half loaded trucks may take it...
