The fastest is by courier. Use "Interparcel" who use DHL. They'll collect it from your house. You can track it all the way. Takes 3 working days. www.interparcel.com

I had a parcel (mobile phone) sent to me by DHL from the UK a month or so ago. Was sent Thursday morning (UK time) and arrived the following Monday afternoon in Adelaide.

Cheers

Definitely DHL. I've used www.wedelivertheworld.co.uk to book, DHL then do the actual transport. Takes 3 days Bristol to Brisbane.

Interparcel use DHL but are cheaper. Very reliable too we used them for the application, outstanding documents to the c.o and medicals.
