Shipping a bike from Cape Town

[eddy]

There was a thread  on the topic last week which named a courier but I can't find it now.

 

Who are the best people to ship a bike to Jo'burg from Cape Town ?

Tryptych

 

But there must be at least 7 threads on this that go into detail, pricing, boxing etc...

I know, but could not find the one of last week.

Will search for Tryptych as that seems the consensus.

 

Thanks everyone

+1 from my side!

Thanks guys, I will try them both.

Thanks guys, I will try them both.

Hopefully better results that your old bike rack.... (is it too soon?)

 

I have also had really good results using Atlas couriers as well.

SAA cargo. Stick it in a box, drop it off with them and person in jhb collects from cargo jhb.

 

Roughly R500 for a road bike

Used Time Freight some time back... Also about 500.

I used them, I was so impressed. Never thought it would be so easy

Tryptech collect from your house and deliver to the dudes house for around the same.

OK, I got in touch with both  Xoc and Tryptich and R506 later, my bike is scheduled for collection even as we speak and will be delivered to me in JHB on Monday. Tomorrow being a holiday has bedevilled things a bit else I may have had it tomorrow - although unlikely.

 

I went with Tryptich as the bike is already packed in a bike bag and they were prepared to move it like that wheras Xoc needed a box. Pricing is similar and service with both was good.

 

I'll report back once I have my long lost treasure back home.
