Default Shipping wheel from Broadbeach Qld to regional Vic?

Not Ford nor strictly car related, but anyway ..

I have a motorbike wheel I need to ship from Broadbeach Qld to regional Vic (where I am) and have got the run-around from a few transport companies. Anyone suggest or recommend someone in Broadbeach area who can assist?

Try Pack and Send.

I just organised a set of wheels from Coffs Harbour to Adelaide. Found them easy and pleasant to deal with.

Was also very happy with the price of $225 delivered to my door.

Rocket.

i had no idea how hard it was to find a good freight company, it seems unless youre spending more than a grand a week they just arent interested.

If it weighs under 20 KG, make Aust post your friend. Cost, about $30 per wheel. I have had wheels sent through Aust post too, hence why I mentioned them.

Please read the manual carefully, as the these manufacturers spent millions of dollars making sure it is perfect.....Now why are there so many problems with my car, when I follow the instructions to the letter?....Answer, majority rules round here


Lock me up and throw away the key because I'm a hoon....I got caught doing 59 in a 60 zone
