In 2012 I was part of a group that shipped a container of 12 bikes from Holland to Almaty. The container went by train. I was merely one of the participants and just had to turn up.

The agent used was

MORY LDI KAZAKHSTAN
Business Center "Alatay"
Office 1208, 151/115 Abaya avenue
050009, Almaty, Kazakhstan

Phone: +7 (727) 266 61 90
Fax : +7 (727) 266 61 94

Email: kazakhstan ATTTTTTTT moryldi DOTTTTTTTTTTTTT com


Yerzhan: ykozybayev ATTTTTTTTT moryldi DOOOTTTTTTTTTTTT com


Yerzhan sorted everything. We landed at Almaty airport v early on a Saturday morning. Got met and did bike customs paperwork at the airport. Sunday everything was closed. Monday afternoon we got taken to the container depot where it was unloaded. Each bike was crated (12 bikes in 1 container, stacked)

Put the front wheel back in and rode away.

Here's my reply to your PM for all to see: Sorry, no idea about time taken/fees in Almaty etc. It happened as I described above. I just turned up.

I paid 750 euros (not including the pallet) for Holland fees, freight and Almaty fees. 12 x 750 = 9000 euros for the whole thing.

Agent in Almaty

Hi all,

Looking to air freight out of Almaty or Bishkek to New Delhi - can anyone help with agent contact details on either side?

Thanks

Ed
