2A roof. Wandong to Tullamarine

[Don 130]

G'day all, I need to get a 2a roof from Wandong Vic.to Tullamarine. From there it will come by truck to me in Sydney area. It's about 2.800 long, 1.500 wide, and .200 high. I don't know the weight, but as it's aluminium, so not very heavy.
My thanks to anyone who can help with this.
Don.

What's the timeframe Don, is this from another member ?

I think I own the chassis to that roof [emoji23][emoji23]

Yes, from another member, Tom, (The Grey_Ghost ).Time frame is ASAP. I'm not in a desparate rush, but Tom needs it out of the way. It's cluttering up his tidiness, and there's already been a few failed attempts.
The truck from Tullamarine to Sydney is a regular thing, shifting stuff between a friends two warehouses.

Don.Its literally 2 mins from the hume freeway, if its your mates truck they may as well pick it up. Id chuck it on my roof but i dont wanna damage it, its wider than my racks are.
Cheers Jim

I thought it would be from Tom, he goes near my place for work and i work in Tullamarine area.
Do you think i would get it onto a roof rack ok ?

The truck belongs to a national freight carrier, so I can't see them diverting. Also the timing would have to be convenient for Tom. If i can get it to Tullamarine, my friend's staff will strap it onto a pallet for the truck trip.

That would depend on roof rack size. Tom says he has a box trailer, but it's too small.
I could pay the hire of a suitable trailer if that helps.

Don.Probably cheaper to pay for tom to put it on the roof of the 101? A trailer is at least $100

Not sure how you'd get it on the roof of his 101 - it's taller than a block of flats. [biggrin] I could pick it up and deliver it to Tulla at some stage in the next few weeks if no one else can - can't do it for at least 2 weeks though.

It'll fit on the back of Arky.....

details?

Thanks Dave, 149216It's about 2.800 long, 1.500 wide, and .2090 high. I'm guessing about 25kg. The place it's going to at Tullamarine, is a warehouse, so open business hours

Thanks for that offer Gavin, That would suit me fine, but I'd have to run it by Tom, And the pickup time would have to suit his work hours.

Those details I had, a little more accuracy on

pick up location
drop location and
timings were more what was needed.

but if thats tom as in I still have to go and do a rear main on one of his series Tom who drives a 101 then thats half of it sorted.

Hi Dave,

Indeed it is the same Tom. I'm not around this weekend (off to Corowa) but I should be around the next few weekends.

The roof doesn't have to go today, or next week - but it would be good to see it gone by the end of March, early April.

Happy for you to pickup on the weekend - but I'm not sure what the drop off location is (other than a transport deport in Tullamarine). And I'm not sure what time said depot is open.

Hi Gav,

Same as above...

Cheers,
Tom.

Dave,
The warehouse is at 3-7 Steele Court, Tullamarine. (Team Medical). The hours are 8-5. Tom has explained the rest.

My apologies, the job I had lined up out past wallan tomorrow evening has been cancelled...

[Don 130]

Bump. I'm still trying to get this roof out of Tom's yard and onto Tullamarine.

I can do it in a week or so - no fixed day or date sorry - depends where I get to on any given day through work - which generally isn’t known until it happens 😉. If that works, zap me the details of where it’s got to get to - address and contact. I know where it is currently.

Thanks Gavin, that would be fantastic. I'll get the details for a contact person tomorrow and send it through to you.

[Homestar]

No dramas. 👍😊

[Don 130]

PM was sent to Homestar
Don.

[Homestar]

Got it thanks. 👍. Will let you know when it’s done - will try for next week a time some point.

[Don 130]

Thanks Gavin. I gather you will also liaise with Tom?
Don.

[Homestar]

Yep, all good there, I know where the roof is at his place - I’ll let him know when I go over to grab it. 👍
