Default Help needed with freight of a spare wheel and tyre.

Hi guys and girls,

I have brought myself a spare wheel and tyre that is in Newcastle and I need to get it freighted to Mornington. I haven't had to get anything freighted before and I am wondering if anybody can help me out with ideas of who I can use and how to go about it. I have tried getting a quote online, but I am having no luck with getting one.

Thanks in advance,

Greg.

Mate try e-go.com.au .

I had 4 wheels and tyres shipped from Melbourne to Canberra not long ago for around $100 from memory, didn't experience any dramas. Cheers.

I have ended up going with e-go and their price from depot to depot was fantastic. It should arrive in a couple of days.

Thanks for all your help guys.

Cheers,

Greg.
