Is it OK to take DIY bits and bobs to OZ?, like reclaimed screws, nails, household bits, etc, that I have accumilated over the years and have come in very handy, as i have drawers of the stuff in my shed, and may come in handy setting up a new place.

Also are there any other peculiar stiplulations on old stuff I might need to be aware of??

Thanks in advance

Hi Ratman

Think rust is a big no no. I've got a shed load (literally) of screws etc, but am ditching them. Gonna have to clean my tools up thou for the big DIY push once there.

Hiya Wall,

why would rust be a problem? I don't plan on taking hunks of rust, b ut surface rust should be ok?

Hi Mark

I think it's a customs thing. Rub the rust off, bit of WD40 and you should be ok. That's what I'm doing anyway

Thanks for the replies Walla/Mark

I suppose that this means that I will havce to ditch all my useful bits and start paying stupid DIY shop prices for basics like screws and such that I take for granted and only taking the nice looking tools....

Ah well!! something extra for the prospective house buyer to have.....

Whats the deal on this rust thing, anybody got more feedback??

Thanks
