Customs in Oz for my garage items?

Spray cans of lubricant 

Engine oils

Radiator fluids

Engine degreasers 

Cleaning detergents 

 

Anything similar to the above that customs will have an issue with when this stuff arrives in Oz? Also...tools, and spare bike parts. Any potential issues? 

 

Thanks a mill!

I would avoid any chemical that has been opened, sealed stuff with the receipts attached should be ok as you are just bringing in sealed items

 

Make sure all the tools and parts are spotless, no oil / grease on them,  there have been some recent drug imports in parts shipments so i suspect they will be looking closely

 

Also if there are enough parts to put together a vehicle you will need to apply for a full vehicle import

Thanks Nev! I dont suppose there is a comprehensive customs guidelines document/link which outlines these items as well as the rules surrounds them? (Aside from the vehicle links that you sent)

I'm not sure if it is comprehensive any more? They used to have a search page, and in the past were often helpful via email.

The company you use to move the goods can also be quite helpful in what can/can't travel in containers.
