What is the best way to get some tyres from Brissie to Sydney ?
Anyone have any contacts ?
My rig has a terrible disease and without these tyres it could become terminal. Please help out in this worthy cause

Glen has not worked for Arctic Cool Treads for at least 3 Months. I dont know if he still has a contact.
Dan Give Ballsack a call he should know someone. He gets his Swampers up and down from here all the time.

You can always try a furnituire removalist, try to back load a consignment and it should work out ok. Most freight companies won't touch you unless you have an account, if you have real strife let me know and I should be able to help out.

McPhee Tpt cost me $40 to get 5 computers from Shitney to Melbourne, door to door..
Sound be worth a try.
Then at the local postoffice, I saw a car tire with a band on it that had been posted

I didnt think they would, unless it was 'mates' kinda job.

Tyres through the mail aint a problem, we get em all the time. Computers, TV's, even had a motor mower through the mail once. Best was a 9x4 ft piece of pegboard years ago, and a diesel motor for my Rocky earlier this year. Dont try that one though, that was a mates rates one.

I used a company called Sadliers to send 4 wheels with tyres from Sydney to Perth last week. Cost me $88 with no account. Must pick up and drop off at a business or you can drop it off at their depot.

Saddliers only go to Perth. Make sure you get a definite price because many carriers wil really slug you if not on account.I'm pretty sure TNT will take credit card.
