Shipping Auckland to Chile end of March 2014 – Info needed + maybe sharing container!
Hey guys!
We are planning to ship our 2 motorcycles from Auckland/New Zealand to Valparaiso/Chile or Santiago de Chile at the end of March 2014.
If someone has experience with sea or air freight we would be more than happy to get information about shipping companies, prices, the time it takes to ship the bikes and so on!
If we decide to ship the bikes by sea we might as well be interested in sharing a container if someone is interested!
We are looking forward to hear from you!
Cheers from New Zealand
Bea & Helle

Servus ihr zwoa!
Habt ihr schon mal Hr. Kleinknecht von Intime ( Intime Motorradtransporte weltweit - Transporte national und international) gefragt? Aktuell schippern unsere Moppeds im Container von D nach Valpo (hoffentlich...). Ich habe jetzt zwar nicht die Erfahrung, ob der gesamte Transport klappt, aber bisher ist das absolut super gelaufen. Hr. Kleinknecht bzw. ein Mitarbeiter waren bisher immer telefonisch erreichbar, wann immer ich angerufen habe. Meine ganzen "unerfahrenen" Fragen wurden geduldig beantwortet.
Schade übrigens, daß ihr erst so spät nach Südamerika rüberkommt. Wir kommen in Valpo schon am 1.3. an und fliegen am 11.4. ab Arica wieder zurück. Hätte Euch gerne persönlich kennengelernt.
Pfiats eich!
Jörg

@Jörg:
Vielen Dank für den Tipp! :-)
Wir haben Herrn Kleinknecht bereits kontaktiert und auch relativ zügig ein Angebot bekommen. Wir warten allerdings noch auf Angebote von lokalen Frächtern hier in NZ und dann schauen wir mal, was wir machen...
So wie es ausschaut werden wir Ende März bis Anfang April verschiffen. Allerdings haben die Containerschiffe von Auckland nach Valparaiso eine Laufzeit von gut 2 1/2 Monaten. D. h. die Motorräder werden wohl frühestens Anfang Juni in Chile ankommen, da seid ihr leider schon lange wieder weg... :-/
Trotzdem viel Spaß bei eurem Trip und immer schön in der Senkrechten bleiben! :-)
Viele Grüße aus dem wechselhaften Neuseeland
Bea & Helle

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
