Freight Forwarder/Customs Broker
Hi Folks,
I have shipped some personal goods (furniture) that I bought in Vietnam to Sydney. Unfortunately the freight forwarder that has been in touch is very expensive.
Can anyone recommend a good freight forwarder/custom broker in the Sydney area?

Re: Freight Forwarder/Customs Broker
Most Customs Brokers are Expensive in OZ.
About $100 - $120 for them to look at the job, then about $5 per different item desription (Line)
You could give A. Hartrodt a call. they have been good to me. I cant remember the number though.
Good Luck

Australia really is a rip off for some things, importing being one of them. Plus the duty levels are set incredibly low.
