Hi all,
I'm looking at buying a camper trailer located in Renmark, SA. I live in Toowoomba, QLD. Does anyone know of a good transport company that would deal with this sort of work? Alternatively, I have family in Brisbane, Grafton, Sydney and Wollongong, so if anyone knows of anyone who could take a backload to any of those places I'd be interested also!

Thanks,
Tim Z

Thanks for that offer,

I'm hoping to take it across the Simpson in June, though :-)

Whereabouts in T'ba? I'm actually in Hodgson Vale.

I have a brother in Stenner Street, another in Cambooya, another in Pittsworth, father in Highfields, and other relatives all over Tmba. Mother is now at G Coast hence the travel plans to check out her new place in July. I left Tmba in 1980 when I signed up in the Army as an apprentice and now live in south west Sydney. Unfortunately cannot convince swmbo to move to the good life of Qld - maybe one day :\

If you change your mind re your travel plans, it should be no problems for me to tow up for you with my Prado (LPG/petrol). I was hoping to go up at Easter, but doesnt look like it will happen so now July - sorry. Catch up later - Mick

Hi Tim
Try Cairns Express Freight They have a depot in Toowoomba and they just quoted me less than a $1000 To pick up caravan from Kilcoy and deliver to Melbourne.

Hi,

That sounds good - but I can't find them on www.whitepages.com.au ?? Would you have a phone no by any chance?

Thanks,
Tim

I am very tempted to say I will tow it up for you but I think you could have it freighted cheaper.

I haven't found anything so far - had some ridiculous quotes for freight, $2450 from one company! So if you've got a spare week up your sleeve, let me know and we'll talk some more!
