Good afternoon all, I have an awning I need to get from Perth to Pakenham Vic, 2.5mts long so posting not an option. Can anybody recommend a courier or freight company? Thanks in advance.

FWIW I bought a Supapeg 2.5m long awning last year & they sent it to me via Startrack.
See 'My Profile' (below) for link to our Aussie travel blog, now in it's 6th year.

Cuppa, can only use Startrack if one has an account with them. Cheers.

Click here on E-GO online freight.
I've used them over the years - always cheaper especially if you book it depot to depot.
So you could drop it off at Canning Vale Depot and the person at the other end can pickup at Dandenong South.
Make sure the awning is well wrapped and tape the consignment notes in ziplock bags.

Try www.transdirect.com.au - they deal with a number of different couriers. If you sign up you get 10% off.

Based on 250x20x20 and 25kgs from residential to residential it would be $100 with Allied Express (non-member price).

For those interested, I eventually went with Transdirect, register and the amount drops about 30%, not a bad deal. No affiliation etc...... Transdirect
