Default Car Transport Help

Hi guys I need to find out about getting a 67 XR Wagon transported from the Gold Coast to Orange. Car is in pieces and can't be driven, the motor was rebuilt about ten years ago but was never fired. All wheels are on the car and it is mobile. I know I can't get it on main stream freight carries as it can't move under own power so i need to see what other option are open to me, any help would be great.
Cheers.

try the main stream anyway.
i used mainstream recently and they said it would be $100 extra if it cant be driven as it would have to be loaded last by winch.
either that or forklift it onto a flat bed.

Hi

Toll will backload from Queensland to Adelaide. They pickup and deliver. I had a car shifted from Canberra to Mildura fro $288, picked up in Canberra. An XF from 70 - 80 k's out of Brisbane was the same price/same deal. Talk to the Wagga depot.

Any load going west is a load they wouldn't normally have.

cheers
Stew
