I second Toll , on a trade agreement 15kg , two day service should cost $6.50 . this should give you an idea of cost . The post is a rip off and the goods are not insured , unless your pay more for the insurance than the goods are worth .

Surely someone out there can help answer this question. A company and phone number would help.
I have rung DHL and they only ship air. TNT didnt want to know me made me ring pack and pay more. And Toll, useless trying to contact them
Where the hell are the companies that throw the parts in the back of a truck and deliver it interstate.??????
Please help!!

Simon, for small items Aussie Post would be the simplest and most convenient way to go - I've managed to ship things as big as a 4AG manifold and exhaust headers through their services.
For larger parts like motors, I know JMS uses Northline Freight Management between Adelaide & Brisbane - their prices are quite competitive but I only have the Brisbane number up here. I can try to arrange things up here if you can't find a number for them in Adelaide ...

Hi
simon's post was a couple months old...so he may have been sorted by now.
But i would appreciate the phone number if they pick up on the gold coast.

If going to /from eastern states I usually use Mainfreight, They have a depot down regency park and service all states.
However Mr Godde n Myself have often used Watsons transport in WA and they come to SA landed in Batsons Taxi trucks also in regency park. It would be nice to find out if they service other states because from my experience they generally charge a flat $60 rate depot to depot for anything (within reason)
