advise please on shipping tools etc??
Hi, i am a builder/bricklayer hopefully moving to the Mandurah area of W/A. would there be a problem with me taking all of my tools over e.g. mixer, wacker plate, breaker, chain saws, etc.? only i have been told that there might be a problem taking patrol engined items over. I was even considering taking my tipper trailer if it would fit into a container! hopefully i will get a response. thanks a lot,Paul.

The main problem seems to be that whatever you decide to take needs to be spotlessly clean (as in a brand new state)

You need to have a look at the AQIS web site:

I brought my Stihl saw with me no problem at all. I ran it dry then left the fuel cap off for a week or so to allow any residue to evaporate, I then used a full Stihl oil capsule to squirt into the engine through the spark plug hole, a few pulls of the cord to work it around then replace the plug. It took less than 10 mins to flush it out & start it this end.
Tools do not have to be spotless they should be free from soil contamination & rust [the aqis guys seem to have a problem with rust] hammerite is cheap though paint your rusty stuff & bring all you can. We had an old Ifor Williams tipper trailer it would have been worth it's weight in gold here.

months prior the mixer had not to much use as he only used it for his
foreigners he is only 24 and the bloke he worked for had one thay
used so his looked in quite good nick but lucky enough i contacted travis
perkins who had a copy of recipt on there computer to prove he had purchased it over twelve months before which in the end we did not need but apart from that it took 10 weeks
on the boat and by the time he got them in sydney We used john mason
