Shipping from Kalgoorlie

[Da Burb]

Hey guys,
I know there's a few of you from Kalgoorlie on here.
Anyone have any idea how I go about shipping 4 tyres from there to here in Melbourne?
Any particular trucking company?

Thanks

Howard

try "perth freight" we use them at work and they seem ok

Hamptom transport perhaps.
When they need to be there by ? Might be able to help you out.

If you don't have a freight account it will cost you a small fortune.
See if any of your friends have freight accounts or work for a company with a freight account.

Also, if they don't have a negotiated freight deal with WA, they could also pay a fortune, but not as much as someone without an account. Make sure they get a quote first, otherwise you could end up with a $400 freight bill.

Cheers
Greg

Hamptons are your best bet from Kal to Perth then Bunkers from there would be your cheapest option :)

Ring Sadliers in Perth and they will quote you and let you you know what to do next.

I once bought 4 wheels and tyres from Perth and had them sent to Newcastle for a Hundred Bucks. I was about six years ago and the guy just went to the local Pack N Send. I know there wont be a pack N Send in Kalgoorlie but it suprised me it was so cheap for a one of transaction. I needed to get some alloy bars transported from Sydney to Newcastle a few months ago so i called TNT who quoted me $160 per item. I now use a little operator who charges me between 10 and 15 bucks per item. Bit of a difference. Maybe your local Pack N Send could organise pick-up for you, and have them bought back to them. even with thier commision it could be a lot cheaper. Not even sure if Pack N Send still exist but if they do its worth a phone call.
