  |
|
Hey guys, I dont know if this is the right spot but...
I have recently bought an Honda Odyssey Fl250 on Ebay and am having trouble bringing it back from Tralgon, Victoria to Adelaide. We have tried to get many different car and transport company's but they either wont the buggy crated, or just aren't interested. So if anyone has a helpful suggestion of a freight/ car transporter that you know of or have used to transport your ATV's could you please reply. Any helpful suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Cheers Tom |

TRY A REMOVALIST THEY MAY BE ABLE TO FIT IT ON A BACK LOAD.

| Back when i used to ride 2 wheelers there used to be a crowd advertising in ADB that shifted bikes around. Not sure if they still exist but might be worth a look. |

| If you get your buggy strapped to 2 pallets and book 2 pallet spaces or a oversized plt at the end of the day it all comes down to how many spaces are required there is no reason why any regular Transport company will not deliver for you.In the past I have sold 3 quads all being interstate buyers and shipped to Tassie & 2 quads to Darwin N.T. |

I'd say your problem is gonna be that an odyssey is bigger than 2 pallets so general freight companies probably won't touch it, I freighted a TRX to adelaide on one oversized pallet and it was only couple of hundred bucks but you'd be looking at 2 oversized pallets which could get exe...
Is anyone else looking to get quads over from Melb to Adelaide soon, maybe you could organise a bulk deal (like half a container) or contract someone to do a specialist delivery.

Give "the bike movers" a call (0418 146 857/03 5466 2248)
I used their services to move a trike from newcastle to melbourne last year. They were friendly and my machine arrived in good condition.
Good luck with your odyssey
