Hey Guys,
I am looking at buying some car paint (15 litres) out of melbourne, but cant work out a way to get it here. Obviously Aus Post doesnt like flammable stuff (they way they treat normal packages I guess flammable stuff would blow up on them) and seeing as I dont have a courier account, I cant really organise it that way, anyone got any ideas for getting it from Melbourne to SA?

Not a bus, a boat all 20 odd feet of it inside and out, I figure red is easier to spot when we are in the poo. Know any couriers who deal with people on a cash basis, because I cant really set up an account for a single thingo.

Have you tried looking locally?

GDB Services are very good and deal with the public too

Don't use Couriers Please.
They'll probably try to tell you there is a 'problem with the address'.

are you going to keep the bottom of the huill white? cos then the fish can't see it (it blends in with the sky)

that is if its a boat that you're going to fish off

locally is probably your best bet, the company probably has a courier acocunt that they can charge you for, but its probably the expensive option...

eg a company i used to work for used to have several courier acocunts, and usually charged double what it cost them to courier something.
