for safety, go tnt. we use them for our business and theyve never let us down when it comes to stock quality. has been a bit late sometimes, but out
of the thousands of deliveries and pickups we've had, its only happened once or twice.

Arrows Express in BNE on 07 3860 5255.. They are at Eagle farm and run a truck down into Sydney every night.. Looking around $25.00 and .60c a kg..
Say $73.00 for 80kg.. Small operator so if you drop in and pay cash they will probably do for less..
Direct Freight Express in BNE on 07 3714 5055.. They are down at Wacol and run lots of trucks back and forward.. May not deal unless you have an
account but you should pay about $7.50 and .28c a kg.. Say $30.00..
Good Luck
Robert
