Morning,
A mate of mine mentioned using Sendle to courier wine state to state and that he paid $10 for I believe half a case Melbourne to Sydney.
I just can't seem to get anywhere near that price, Melbourne to Adelaide.
Does anyone have any recommendations, companies that I can look into other than Sendle?
Thank you
Check out interparcel.com.ah
Cheaper than trans direct in most cases and easier to deal with when something goes wrong.
Been around longer too so they have better rates with a lot of companies.
.au lol.
Thanks. Used them for O/s, never for local. Don't know why. Will try this week.
I just tried for Syd-Bris and Syd-Mel and Interparcel was more expensive than Transdirect on all counts, some couriers by 15% or so, others by almost 100%.
Not sure what you did
I just did a comparison and interparcel was cheaper on all fronts.
Might depend on parcel size maybe.
What are you paying to send 20kg 40cm cube from Sydney to Melbourne on TNT overnight and Couriers Please 2 days?
Sendle is an aggregator, not the courier company. My previous experience (at least 3-4 years ago) with them is that they pick the courier for any given route and package and the courier is usually a cheapie like Aramex or Couriers Please.
I now almost exclusively use Transdirect - also an aggregator but they provide options on which courier to use. $10 sounds low I am sure I've seen quotes for a few kg from Sydney to Melbourne for the low teens of dollars using the cheaper carriers. Personally I steer clear of these budget couriers, pay a few dollars more and use TNT - I rest easy knowing the package will be picked up and delivered on time.
