Hey guys,

me and the family are moving to Caboolture area in QLD and i need to transport my 64 mini from my mums place in melbourne, He currently is a no goer, so he will need to be shipped.

does anybody have any recommendations on who to use or how to transport him up to QLD from melbourne?

Cheers

Rohan

(i also have a VT wagon to transport too)

We'll almost be neighbours :roll: well an hour apart anyway - used to live in Kilsyth when we first got married to - sorry can't help with the transport - most companies don't like non goers but someone used someone recently maybe they will see this and let you know.

I've no direct experience but I think I remember hearing someone mention that Ceva Logistics will move a non-runner.. worth asking them perhaps.

It may be cheaper to put both cars in a 40 foot container along with your household stuff and have it all shipped in one go, rather than a truck for the household and two cars transported seperately?

I had considered putting the mini in a container with the furniture... unfortunately i dont think the Commodore would fit as easily!
