Re: Transport Thread
This may be general knowledge, but I only found this out 2 weeks ago when I needed to send the small, heavy package in my post above:
Aramex couriers, through Pick n Pay, offers "store-to-door" overnight courier service anywhere in the country for R99. Simply take you package to your local PnP, pay R99 for the bag and drop it in the Aramex box for 15h00 pick-up and delivery by 12h00 the next day.
The only limitation is the package must fit in the bag (standard courier bag), and obviously no dangerous or illegal substances. No weight limit.
I sent my 18kg package, which just squeezed into the bag, from Rosebank in Jhb and it was in PE at 9am the next day.

Re: Transport Thread
I don't think so, but maybe. Try repacking in a smaller box, since bus taillights aren't that bulky.
Apparently it will take a lever arch file. My package was 19x19x19cm and it just squeezed in, though it could have taken a slightly longer box.

Re: Transport Thread
Can anyone help me to move a large hand wagon from Pinetown to Joburg. I'm willing to pay for the service.
Dimensions are L1900cm x W1000cm x H550cm. It will fit in the back of a bakkie or kombi.
If possible I'd like to have it before Christmas so I can continue with my restoration of a VW-powered fire pump.

Re: Transport Thread
Can anyone assist me to get a 23kg box of tools from Walvis Bay to Johannesburg?
These are used, antique tools and I'm trying to avoid paying Nam and SA VAT and SA duties, which the couriers say are unavoidable. I have no doubt they'd attract no attention if someone drove them across the border in a private car.
