    Courier for UK to Sydney - suggestions welcome!

    Hi Folks,
    I wanted to get suggestions on a courier service which you have experience with - which does a good job and reasonable price. I need to ship a Safari snorkel from there to Sydney. Yes, I realise this will cost a bomb - probably about £100 to £150 - but it still will work out to about half the price from a local supplier

    I welcome any suggestions!

    Thanks and regards,
    Rob

    Are you in the UK or Sydney?

    Who are you purchasing from? PM me if you like...under LSD_Automotive rather than this account...do they have an existing account with a courier? It's generally cheaper that way.
    Need to keep in mind urgency and red tape... If it isn't urgent going by air is going to cost. I have a snorkel here, boxed, that I can measure dimensions from if you need them also. If it is of an urgent nature, or just desired quickly, avoid anyone that transfers the job to Aus Post...International via AusPost is ridiculously slow

    When we ran venture overland in the UK we always used interparcel.co.uk, always cheapest around, very reliable also.

    Its sort of a courier broker that uses all the big names and you can choose the service you want. You pay and all the shipping labels are emailed to you which you can then email to the supplier to simply stick on the box(es).
