Fruit and Veges into Qld from NSW

Yeah that helps - I think I have looked at this before. But I am trying to find information about Qld as well, along the route that we want to follow...

Ooops - forgot me manners - thanks for the link too :)

G'day viz,
No restrictions (into or within Q'ld) along your planned route to Birdsville..
your dried fruits will be fine:)

Strictly speaking, though you're not supposed to cross any border into SA (with fruit or veges), I personally wouldn't be too concerned about Birdsville to Innamincka..
After all, the checkpoint for travellers from the West is at Ceduna, and Innamincka is just as far from any fruit growing regions, and in an arid area to boot..
That said, it's always a good idea to destroy (by burning or cooking) any & all fruit & vege scraps..

Thanks for that.

Having spent some time in the horticultural industry I am keenly aware of the needs for quarantine and for treating food stuffs etc. This does include cooking or destroying fruit and veges when moving into quarantine areas. We have spent time on the side of the road eating said fruits and veges rather than destroying, and cook prior to entering.

Doing the research now ensures no surprises. Was travelling down Qld one time and pulled into a supermarket to buy supplies for dinner that night. 5 kays down the road a fruit fly road block we did not know about - we ate our greens, followed by desert a bit early that night...

LOL :D

Thanks for that - I'll let the Missus know.
