Too lazy to search for similar threads. Need to courier a bike to Durbs. Not an urgent, like, overnight delivery,  statues, so I want cheap and nasty, but safe too. Any suggestions?

I used a company called triptych to courier a bike from CPT to JHB and they charged me R250 excl. Boxed it myself and it arrived in perfect condition on the other side.

That's very cheap! Was it collection or delivery the other side?

Time Freight will cost about R500. Can pay on collection and they will pick up for that price from a private address. You don't have to go to the depot.

If you are on good terms with your lbs you could ask them to use their regular courier with whom they have an account. They pay a lot less.

I work in a bike shop on Saturday mornings and never thought of that. :blush:

Ha ha, talk about not seeing the wood for the trees. Chat to the owners, sure it won't be a problem. My lbs just sent some wheels to Cape Town for me, cost half as much as I would have paid sending them myself.
