Hey guys, I know this is a long shot but is anyone driving from Toowoomba to Sydney in the next 2 weeks?
I had an accident last week & had to leave my bicycle in Toowoomba as the airport had run out of boxes, its all boxed up now so will fit in the back of a Landy easy.. Im having a bit of trouble finding couriers :(
Thanks in advance!!

I’ll be in Toowoomba next week.....

Can get it back to Brisbane....if that helps.

Hey thanks mate!!
It will probably be a lot easier to get a courier to collect from Brisbane than Toowoomba or even someone else on here might be going to Sydney from Brissy..
Lets see hey :) I'll get some quotes..
Appreciate it!!!

You probably don’t want to hear that my son just drove brisbane to Jervis Bay on the weekend just gone.

Send us a PM, from memory I’m up in Toowoomba on Wednesday.....providing I’m not stuck in Victoria....

Hello from Sherwood.

I will also be up in Toowoomba tomorrow and Wednesday. If the earlier offer for a pickup next week hasn’t been taken up then I could possibly get the box back to Brisbane at least by Wednesday night.

Cheers,

Neil

I meant to say I’ll be in Toowoomba Wednesday next week .....

Total fire bans in Vic are throwing up some challenges, just a few hoops to jump through to get approvals and we should be back in Brisbane as scheduled.....that’s if the nobody else grabs the bike first.

Hello again.

As noted, and if it suits you better, I could collect the boxed bike in Toowoomba either tomorrow or on Wednesday. I am assuming that it is out at Wellcamp - is that correct?

Cheers,

Neil

Hey thanks heaps guys!!
I've got a quote from Toowoomba to sydney to freight it but if its not a drama for either of you to help out I'll ask if it will be much cheaper to ship from Brissy instead..
I'm not in any real rush so Wednesday should be fine, I'll just need to check with the guy who has it now, he's another good samaritan who is helping us out since the airport had run out of boxes & we couldn't take it with us :(

OK.

I’m heading to Toowoomba in an hour or so (now 8:00am). Will leave there tomorrow afternoon around 3:00pm at the latest.

So, if you decide to bring it back to Brisbane for shipping it on to Sydney - that is the window on offer.

Cheers,

Neil

Thanks Neil,

It'll only save me $25 going from Brisbane so I don't think its worth the hassle it would put you through.
I'll just get it shipped from Toowoomba, the price isn't ridiculous & I don't have to ask any more favours!

Really appreciate your offer though :)

Makes sense.
