Title: Parts transport required -Dalby to Shellharbour
Post by: Crumpsnr on March 06, 2015, 09:45:12 PM
Hi all,

I have 45kg of truck parts for my Fargo at Dalby Wreckers in Qld, West of Toowoomba.
The couriers are taking OHS to the limit and wanting a forklift at this end due to the weight (45kg isn't a big lift, but fair enough, they don't want to be liable if anything happens). If I get it separated to limit the weight of any individual package, I pay for 2 packages. Does anyone know of anyone that is going to be making the trip this way in the very near future who could do a parts run? Shellharbour is about 100km South of Sydney. Happy to pay for the service. I don't have enough time to wait for people to return from the Nationals next year! Regards, Martyn

Hi Martyn,

You can try e-go.com.au I have found them to offer a great & cheap service.

Cheers

X2!

I'm a big fan of E-go. I'm pretty sure Stinky is too.

Thanks fellas, e-go it is, at $100 less than quoted by the seller, and no forklift required.

Will hopefully have some update posts on the Fargo after this.

Regards, Martyn

E-go aren't bad but "when" something goes wrong it goes wrong in a BIG way!!!

If you have a Pack & Send branch near you inquire with them next time as 99% of there freight goes with Star Track meaning you don't have to be a business account holder with Star Track but get all the benefits of there services.

Shipping was arranged last Tuesday night via e-go, parts arrived today 7 working days later as promised. 47kg of truck bits delivered from Dalby Qld to the depot South of Wollongong. Got a text notification that parts had arrived. All done for $86. Bargain. Thanks for the tip guys. Might have some update photos soon! Then I can get back to the FC. Martyn  :)
