Guest Nelson Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 Hiya Tim.. John Mason at http://www.johnmason.com will give a realistic quote. Most companies include transportation up to 30 miles radius of the port of arrival. Everything is negotiable though, isn't it :!: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Adi1962 Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 On thing to check is if your departure port can do the fumigation prior to shipment. If they can this will save you at least 48 hours in Oz. It won't cause any delay in the departure as they are able to pop it on the ship once sprayed....its also cheaper than in Oz. Insurance - check the cover they offer is not just total loss cover, but also includes damage. Transit times: Should be 6-8 weeks max. I know London - Adelaide is around 39 days.

Guest Mark'n'Ju Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 Another thing to remember is the clearance time once docked. Cargo unloading,quarantine,customs to delivery can take up to 4 weeks depending on how busy the port is at the time.The wait is not a pleasent time with 2 kids and no toys!!!!!
