Re: Transport Thread
Have some bulky goodies to shift from CPT to PMB/Midlands, if any one is heading out that way, please? 
Happy to pay a fair rate.

Re: Transport Thread
Hi Riekert
What area are the wheels? Do I need to go pick them up or will they drop it at Roodepoort?
Regards,
Jaco

Re: Transport Thread
I'm sure i'll be able to arrange a drop off. The wheels are in sydenham. So its about 30km from Roodepoort. if a pickup is necessary I'm more than willing to pay for the trip. It's just I got quoted a crazy amount to get the wheels shipped.Jdt1976 wrote:Hi Riekert

Re: Transport Thread
Guys
Just want to say THANKS to the guys like @Fig, @kev's and others for actually taking the time to POST and OFFER their travelling services on the forum for other aircooled enthusiasts.. you guys ROCK.
Is there anyway we can ESCALATE this thread tho, because for those of you who know and are aware of it, our useless f#Ck Government and it's Postal Services Strikes, and the f#Ck useless Unions are slowly BUT SURELY crippling this Country! it's impossible to send anything around the Country without paying through your "you know what" for it.. The Couriers have cottoned on to this, and are now taking the absolute PISS, charging stupid numbers to take small envelopes from Cape Town to JHB! Yurre but we need a revolt or uprising soonest.
I need to send up a tarp to Centurion from Cape Town, Or Marius needs to have it collected down here. it's the size of ladies handbag, and weighs under half a Kg. Speed Services don't guarantee anything! Couriers want to charge more than what this thing's worth (R 400-00)! So what are our alternatives, except to offer each other travelling services between cities, if it's at all possible.
Anyone coming down from Centurion, or flying back to that area from Cape Town, or driving, please get in contact.
Cheers
Alan
