    I know Stickthis can arrange something for you - he has a mate that does the Melb to Perth run.

    If that fails check with Ozbox, I believe he has a couple transport contacts as well.

    Yep I do. Now where is their number!

    EDIT Found it. That was quick.
    Graham Read Transport 0418304748 Let him know Jason Ackland from Cummins put you onto him. He used to be my next door neighbor.


    many carriers wont do cars that dont go. Or cars that have parts in the back. These guys will do anything. They do 90% caravans. But do plenty of other bits and pieces also.

    I say hire a car trailer and do it yourself. Takes all the fun and experience out of it if you get someone to do it for you.

    Hahaha.... I did Brisbane to Melbourne to Brisbane towing a car trailer to pick up a van with a mate.... his van not mine. Was a fun road trip but with the trailer hire and fuel we used it pretty much cost the same as paying for it to be transported.

    40hr + round trip non stop, leaving friday arvo and getting home very late Sunday night..... we took turns driving and were both knackered by the time we got home and didn't go to work on the Monday.
