731976 2008-12-23 09:34:00 MainFreight are reasonable priced they deal with large items from trademe all the time ( I Had to get a quote on shipping a bunk bed)Give them a call (www.mainfreight.com) - they should be able to quote what it would cost.

Edited: they do the packing and everything I was told.

731977 2008-12-23 09:57:00 yeah tried them and they reckon about $600, i can drive up and get it for less than that hueybot3000 (3646)
731978 2008-12-24 05:01:00 Huey try Peter Baker transport they do linehaul.

$600 sounds very expensive though.

Whoever is running the railways these days might also be cheaper, not sure if it would get there in one piece though.
