please help Thank you Ummmmm...do they have trailers and tow balls in Tassie?? I'd be looking into paying for fuel etc for someone to tow it back. Maybe you could hire a trailer?? Car clubs have trailers that can be borrowed sometimes... Otherwise, get onto a Tassie freight company and ask a bout backloading... |

Ring all the transport companies that use the boat and you may find someone that is coming back empty or that they can do it for a lot less than a courier. (couriers are very very dear) I sometimes see a Tasmanian furnature removalist truck on the Hume hwy. and have thought that it may be a cheap way to get bits to tassie. If you were to call a courier/transport company (Toll, Ipec, TNT, etc) they would charge and arm and a leg, but if you can find someone that is bringing a truck back empty.... |

Black, it cost me $350 to freight my halfcut from Brisbane to Canberra. But as you so close I would take Mick's advice and drive over with a trailer. If I was that physically close to Brisbane I would have. |

sam, 400 is cheap for a front cut. most importers down here charge 600-800. just get it, once u have it here, u can sell the parts off it that u dont need and sell them to pay for postage
