Going to start loading again already soon ! (my buddy is just waiting for all the containers to finish coming in we just had sent there (still have a few more to go) then will be heading back here and we'll get right back to it.)

Begining of June and for a few weeks time. (but would want to get everything by say,....the 15th or so to get it in time to get it loaded)

Very interesting, I might have a set of wheels to drop to you. I obviously can't get them from Lillydale but I have some mates that should be able to.

Going to start loading next week....and only a quick batch this time around, but if anyone needs stuff sent across just holler. I won't be on too much while loading (since it's so busy) but I will check in here in the morning and evenings at least.

Is that one set of wheels, or ? (since you only said 'some'....wasn't sure how many so I know what sort of room they'll take up is all)

Sorry, but I don't do any shipping there (mentioned it early in this thread)
My mate there I work with is to flat out when containers come in with our vehicles, customers vehicles, etc, etc. to get into shipping any stuff around so I just have to have guys come into the factory and pick up the stuff I ship over. I have shipped over some bigger stuff for interstate guys who organized thier own transport (truck freight like on engines, pallets of tires, etc) and that worked out ok at least.
Just not able to help on sending stuff off from the factory there once he unloads all the containers...sorry...


And moot... the set of wheels at $2500 would be $400 to land there...thanks :)

A bit of a last minute deal, but just found out a deal has gone through and I have a couple vehicles to send straight away so will be doing a container in like a weeks' time. So if anyone needs anything sent over, and can get it here quick, I can get it over there straight away!

Also...looks like I will be doing another container back this way :) in a couple months time, so time for me to think of a few things to bring back here again, lol...

I highly recommend Jeff's service he provides.

Just had six used 15 X 7 " Pontiac GTS style wheels shipped over plus all the other stuff he has sent for me over the last year or so.

( wheels worked out to cost me $75 each all up shipping and all )

Very affordable and great prices now with the dollar the way it is..

Thanks again Jeff

Jeff, a General Lee has just turned up in town from the States, was wondering if you had a hand in the import.

Haven't seen the guy to ask him but i think he picked it up from Brisbane to bring home so not sure if it was imported straight to Brissy or shipped there from somewhere else.

Sorry, I can't say who to use off hand to ship to that area.. and as for cost, something that I would have no idea off hand I am afraid. It would be too big to go flat rack I think even. (flat racks are 40 feet long, but you lose a few feet of that from the end plates) It might go RORO, but would have to check into it even. Cost for things like that goes by cubic meters basically. I know I just sort of recently sent a 27' pontoon boat and that was about $15k in shipping alone. Sorry I can't help with recommending anyone off hand to get it to your area.



As well for everyone more local, I know it is a little quick to plan things but I will be loading a couple of containers over the next couple of weeks now. (my mate is coming sooner than normal to help me with a few things as well as our normal work stuff) so if anyone had needed anything sent, just holler !


Thanks..

Hi Jeff,

Not ready to do it that quick, but have been riding quads/ATVs for years, and have always ondered getting a fully tricked ATV shipped over.
Trinity and Duncan have them for sale from time to time ( we went to their shops a few years ago and were impressed).
Any idea of total costs to land one in Aus?
Do you do that sort of stuff?
Thanks

Yep, no worries....but anything newer than 1988 would be a compliance vehicle and I couldn't do it is all, and since I assume you are talking about new stuff pretty, you can't really import them technically.

Parts and stuff is easy enough, I only ship into Melbourne though (not NSW I am afraid) but if the time comes and I can be of help, just holler.

Thanks !
