The truck driver was able to free himself from the vehicle, which was loaded with pharmaceutical supplies.
Queensland police expect the crash to cause traffic delays for hours and have asked the public to steer clear of the area.
“Exit 66 may need to close at some stage,” a police spokesman said.
“Delays expected, avoid if you can.”
