Roy Posted July 13, 2004 Share Posted July 13, 2004 I recall, (i think it was fatz) suggesting a few couriers to get some wheels from Sydney to melbourne. Doesnt have to be overnight courier or anything, but cheap would be good. Anyone have any suggestions.... for a lazy $100 im a chance of getting someone i know to backload it on a trip back to Melb, but id rather spend the money and get the rims now, not when he can do it.

Beer Baron Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 Having sent rims interstate before I used Scotts Transport at Revesby. From memory it was $40 for a half pallet. Only catch is you have to drop off and pick up the rims from their depot. But if cheap is your aim it can't be done any cheaper than that.

Beer Baron Posted July 15, 2004 Share Posted July 15, 2004 p.s. Scott's transport told me they don't do small or personal items. The bar stewards. They've done it for me a few times now. Wheels (a couple of times) and a cat back exhaust once too. hmmm. I *may* have given them the impression that it was a business thing though. But I sure didn't supply any ABN or anything and I paid in cash.

Duncan Posted July 15, 2004 Share Posted July 15, 2004 well, 17' rims are within their rules then plus you only have to take it to the local po. their online calculator wasy 45cm x 45cm is too big, but the PO accepted it an delivered it ok :confused: Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/45874-interstate-couriers/#findComment-936112 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoughBoy Posted July 15, 2004 Share Posted July 15, 2004 I just had to pick up an exhaust system from the post office, a "trainee" accepted it for delivery then the postmaster there had a hissy fit and handed it back. At first they said anything with a dimension larger than 150cm is too big, then he said 100cm.... Need to find a courier asap... if all else fails I'll TNT the sucker.

Whose rims...mine, your kidding right, they rule... i like to experiment with colours Scotts wont touch them, but just founf a place called Vic Valley couriers that will do it for $60, an acquanitance (i have no friends because my wheels im told are lame:Oops: ) has used them without probs. Since they are so ugly you are probably right to wheel them out and leave them on the curb unitlt hey get picked up, they wont get stolen, but their ghastly appearance might drop real estate prices in your streer :Oops: Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/45874-interstate-couriers/#findComment-936250 Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoughBoy Posted July 15, 2004 Share Posted July 15, 2004 Yeah, Andrew's rims are the shockers. I can't comment on yours Troy cause Steve's got them too... although now they are the RVR rims. Go the Spastic Van! Might look different on the car though, have to wait and see. If I'm bored I'll put them on my car Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/45874-interstate-couriers/#findComment-936385 Share on other sites More sharing options...
