Hi Guys
I am looking at getting a Hemi from Black Mountain hemi in Lititz PA, zip 17543, and I will need to ship it to LA to the frieght handlers near long beach, before getting it shipped to Australia.

Or do you know of anyone who ships international out of Newyork?

What I want to know is who do you recomend to pick it up for me, and any idea of what it will cost?

He can crate it up for me and it will be around 800lb 32in x 32in

Thanks
Andrew

I just did a quick Google search for "shipping Philadelphia to Australia"
and got some hits.

Philadelphia (Pennsylvania) is the closest port to Lititz, PA.

Next closest would be Newark, New Jersey or Wilmington, Delaware, or New York, New York.

I'm guessing ocean shipping is what you are considering?  ...."Less than full container" shipping is available from Philadelphia to OZ, but I don't know which seaport in OZ you would prefer.

There was at least one company on Google that offered online shipping quotes.

I could possibly assist in getting the crate from Lititz to Philadelphia or Newark, depending on when this needs to take place, and other details.

You would have to compare the difference in cost between ocean shipping from our East coast, and the cost of having it trucked to California then ocean shipping from there.  .....Shipping from Philadelphia would probably be the least troublesome method, with less chance of screw-ups.

Thanks for that, I am in no hurry just yet, so I will do my maths on each option and see what I decide to do.

I may be in touch.

You guys are not going to buy one in a car and drive it across the country this time? I just read the message. I've passing it for days thinking someone was trying to get something from Pa. to Louisiana. GPster
