Im looking at hiring a car tailer to take the LC to a few workshops to get the exhaust hooked up, RWC and engineering done.

The local servo wants $150 for 9hrs which to me is a joke.

Can anyone reccomend anyone cheaper that the servos?

Or does anyone in Brisbane wish to hire their trailer out to me?

if u use a servo hire trailer make sure everything is in working order before u drive off having the winch wire zip tied to the crank is pretty useless.......

I'll second the Matilda at Strathpine, I've hired theirs on more than one occasion and they've been good.

Still I think the $150 for 9hours isnt above the going rate though......i think you will struggle to find anything heaps cheaper, but like I said Matilda at strathpine have always been the cheapest closer to me.

Hey,
it depends on what you are moving from where to where???
I was quoted by a tilt tray operator,
$180 to move a Torana hatch from Carina to Deception Bay,
or if I am willing to wait till he has a load to the area,
$100 as a backload from Carina.
Less effort from my behalf and I don't have to wear my car towing it.
I had hired a trailer at Margate, $125 for 8 hours to move another Torana
to our workshop.
The tilt tray can pick up the next one.
Cheers
Chris.

Ask if he likes the cheque made out to C-ash you may get more of a discount. But don't ask for a cash price straight up as you will not know if you are getting a discount.

Cheers John.
