Yo,

I did a search but couldn't find anything, even though i've read something on this topic somewhere here before....

Anyway, I need to send 2 wheels from Canberra to Forster/Tuncurry.. Just wondering what company people ave found to be the cheapest for this sort of thing and how to package etc..... I tried E-GO and the quote was $66, which I thought sounded way too much.

Any suggestions?

Cheers
J

^^ yes you do

E-go are the best by far, although the time frame is always more than 10 working days no matter what the quote says.

Pallet for sure, I doubt any company would take an engine by itself and if they did shit would get fckd up.

I ended up using AUST post. It was half the price of E-go............
$31 to send 2 14' wheels from ACT to Forster, NSW......
