Air freight v shipping - transporting a motorcycle from Australia to South Africa
Hi All,
I'm currently weighing up the costs of transporting a 250cc motorcycle from Australia to South Africa, and trying to decide whether air or sea is best.
I'm tempted to try air freight, as I'm not keen to wait weeks for the bike to materialise at my destination - but worried it might be a lot more expensive. Does anyone know any good air freight companies that would safely transport a motorcycle from Australia to South Africa? I'm in Melbourne, but could get the bike to another location if need be (eg Perth/Sydney). Similarly, at the South Africa end, I'm open to Cape Town, Johannesburg or Durban if it helps logistically or costs-wise. Any indication of costs and timeframe would also be much appreciated!
Alternatively, if anyone's used a good and/or cheap shipping option from Aus to SA, I'd love to hear about that too!
Thanks, guys.
Jeanie
