Give em away in Albury and buy new ones in Bris ......... probably cheaper when you factor in all the stuffing around.

I think you miss read his post. He wants to get them from Brisbane to Albury, not the otherway around as your reply would suggest.

The train is usually pretty reasonable, if someone can drop at station and pick up at bris station. Busfreight is also handy. Hume transport do really good rates to and from albury. You should have asked last week - chris was doing a flyer from bris to melb and back....

I'm coming that way but not for about 4 months :-((

I think that you will find that BUS FREIGHT is the cheapest. I know Greyhound Buses do a lot of it.

Wow thanks for all your advice........... I got a few quotes etc ranging from $235 to $67 (toll ipec), busfreight are very reasonable also but with 49 kilos it just added up to slightly too much. so for future reference busfreight are $34 for 20 kg but they charge per parcel. toll ipec charge $18 fee plus $1 per kilo. BTW did you know Kmart have got 25% off camping supplies. i do love a bargain. cheers
