Queensland Fire and Emergency Services were on standby while the trucks were moved off the motorway.
One person was taken to Logan hospital in a stable condition.
As of 7.10am there were 40-minute delays westbound to Forest Lake, with traffic very slow moving back to Berrinba.
Meanwhile, congestion on the Pacific Motorway northbound is slow-moving between Underwood and Shailer Park, leading to 24-minute delays.
Earlier, a man was taken to the Princess Alexandra Hospital in a serious condition with significant arm and leg injuries following a car and motorbike collision in Acacia Ridge.
Paramedics, including Critical Care and the High Acuity Response Unit, responded to reports of a vehicle and motorcycle crash on Elizabeth Street and Beaudesert Road at 3.25am.
A second patient sustained minor injuries and declined transport to hospital.
