Any courier drivers on here?

[98tls]

I recently bought a set of bars and a tarp for my ute off a bloke in New Plymouth,now to get them down here,i got the guy to get a price from a frieght company up there..$200+gst seems over the top but i have no idea really..anyone had something freighted/couriered that size..although an odd shape there really quite light,they stop at the top of the well-side..ie dont go down into deck so really not that big at all,anyone shed some light on if thats a fair price or not.......

No idea mate.....the blokes real busy and he got his old lady to ring up a local frieght company in new-plymouth,not sure but am picking she said roll bars and the guy has it in his head that there bloody huge....i sort of thought maybe $80 or there abouts but its real hard to sort out from all the way down here..i cant expect the guy to run around all over town with the things getting prices really,just thought i would try my luck on here and see if anyone knew.

They will be quoting on cubic measurements. It'll be done on the biggest dimensions (i.e. you will probably be paying for a lot of empty space).

Maybe you could call someone like biketranz... they carried some boxes of engine parts down with my bike... maybe they'll do the same without the bike...
