More Freighting Questions

:roll:

Sorry team but ive searched and rang a few places and after being sick of told they dont do cash sales and it will cost $350 to send two seats to dunedin I give up.

Anyways, I need a price to send the 2 bucket seats im selling to Dunedin from Auckland, and also need the price from Auckland to Wellington.
Together with adaptor bars they weigh about 26kg and thier dimensions are roughly 900mm X 950mm X 600mm. So well under 1m cube depending on how I sit them together.

Can anyone suggest the cheapest place possible, depot to depot is ok. I was expecting around $50ish as I had 4 racing slicks sent from chch for $50 a few weeks back through Fliway, Fliway quoted me $250 today to send the seats...wtf???

Cheers for any help.

I had the best luck with Freightlines, failing that we use Toll Tranz Link at work and the rates are surprisingly good.

For example it cost me $75 to send 5 alloys with tyres from Christchurch to Palmy through Freightlines.

Bugger you sold the seats did ya? I was going to express interest once I scraped the money together :)

I use Freightlines as well, when I sold my Enkei's I sent them to Napier on a pallet, came and picked them up from work and just paid cash, $140 incl gst tho! Buyer paid that anyway.

mana transport will do cash jobs but a bit on the pricey side

When in doubt, down and out.
