Default need help with wheel freight

I'm looking at buying a set of 19'' argents from QLD and need to get them freighted to Melbourne. The guy i'm buying them off doesn't want to organise it. So, any reputable and cheap companies that you guys have used before? Any suggestions would be great
Cheers

Using 12 kgs of weight for each wheel packed (??),
50 x 25 x 50 as dimensions (??),
Sent from Brisbane, 4000,
Sent to Melbourne, 3000,
it will take 2-3 for door to door delivery,
costing $39.36 inc GST
that you need to pay by CC to e-go
after using the quote page here to start
http://www.e-go.com.au/startbook.do?start=true I`m bored


They will email you the con-note that you email to the guy who tapes it to one of the cartons after he packs them up securely for you. E-go will probably have Hunter Transport (parent company) pick them up and deliver them to you 2-3 days later. Do not expect to have a phone number to call them on as they only use email for communication which is their only bad point.

I have used them approx. 10-11 times for shipping all over Aus.


Cheers
Mick

Thanks for all that. Forgot to mention they're with tyres too so change wheel weight to 25

You think that the tyres arent going to change the dimensions also??

I`ll have a guess at 70 x 70 with tyres.

......working.....
......processing..............

$67.08

If anyone can get that cheaper, I`ll...........buy you a beer

Cheers
