Hi all,

I was hoping to get a package (roughly 4.5kg, 1250x400x200mm) from Qld to WA and wondering who would be best to go through. Having looked at several freight calculators and perused the site for a while, I am still a bit wary of jumping in. Any suggestions would be most welcome.


Regards,

George,
I have found Australia Post to be OK for parcels that size or maybe Nightroad is the most common. If you want it quick maybe Australian Air Express.
Cheers
Craig

I recently sent a series 3 dash to W.A. from Qld. I used e-go.com.au it was easy to use and arrived in a few days. I have just sent a firewall to Mackay using e-go and it arrived in 12 hours. I now have an account with them, very easy to use and reasonably priced.

Hi

Interparcel offer a pretty good comparison service

Aust post is sometimes the cheapest though

Cripes, if using Austpost, then be certain to insure it!
Just ask RonB.
cheers

I've used e-go quite a few times now.
I've never had a problem with them.

Ditto - except for one small issue which was resolved OK and due to the sender not labeling correctly and not e-go's fault. Make sure you follow their instructions and write the consignment number on the package itself in case the paper connote goes astray.

I've also used e-go and had a pleasant experience.

Tried the Aus Post package calculator but it didn't like the overall length measurement. Will try the others.


Edit: Looks like e-go will be fine. Thanks everyone. I really appreciate it.
