Motorcycle Freighter

[Coyote]

Our 80 is now sold, it'll be sad to see it go but we need the money :woohoo:

Anyway, the deal we got on trademe was this guy was to buy it now and pay us the full 1500, but we had to pay for shipping. We agreed despite not knowing how much it'll cost to ship it. We offed to use Mainfreight which ships from depot to depot so he's need to pick it up at the Auckland depot, but no he wants it delivered to his door and by this weekend (costing us more I bet)

My question is: who is the best/cheapest freighter to transport the bike from Upper Hutt (Wellington) to Pukekohe (Auckland) and how much will it cost? I'm currently searching through the net myself and will be calling a few people in the Yellow pages, just wanted to hear your experiences and if you could give me a few suggestions for who to go for

There are a truckload (pun intended) of posts about bike transportation. Do a search you lazy bugger.

Tomorrow's Wednesday. He ain't getting by the weekend.

Looking at the auction questions, you only agreed to send it to Pukekohe.

I did have a pallet (160Kg) of printers arrive at my door the other day. Cost me $120 postage.

Yeah, but thats like looking in a dictionary without knowing how the word is spelt. I've searched up 'Bike transportation', 'bike shipping' 'bike shipment', 'motorcycle shipment', 'freighting', haven't found anything of help to me so far.
