TamTam Posted July 15, 2018 Report Share Posted July 15, 2018 Hi there We had to leave a bike in a bike box in JHB because Qantas wanted to charge us R17 000. We are trying to investigate other options. Does anyone have space in a container coming to Queensland or any other ideas for me. We are not in a rush for it.

0 Tntaglia Posted July 17, 2018 Report Share Posted July 17, 2018 You should be able to use any of the moving companies and send it across as groupage - if it's just a bike box it's likely to be really cheap to send in a groupage container. Just make sure it's really clean (no mud or dust or anything), obviously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Rossen Posted July 31, 2018 Report Share Posted July 31, 2018 Hi @TamTam, have you managed to get your bike to Brisbane? I've been trying to figure out how to take my bike and paraglider with when I come over. We're getting a move cube but I don't want to be without them for 3 months...

0 TamTam Posted August 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 @Rossen we decided to send it using Seven Seas - they have an ''excess baggage'' option however we are sending it via sea which, as you know, will take around 3 months. But seeing as hubby as his second bike already in Australia we don't mind waiting. You could try sending it using their air freight option. The bike is costing R1600 to send plus $100 when it arrives and R2000 insurance. To send it via air was at least R8000. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi there
We had to leave a bike in a bike box in JHB because Qantas wanted to charge us R17 000. We are trying to investigate other options.
Does anyone have space in a container coming to Queensland or any other ideas for me. We are not in a rush for it.
Thanks
