Dougs removals anything from anywhere to anywhere cheaply
« on: August 08, 2014, 01:36:50 AM »
Hi, just thought i would post this up.  I used Dougs removals to transport a bike from Adelaide to Perth.  It was door to door and really cheap.  He travels all over Australia delivering antiques and will take bikes, parts, frames, anything.... from anywhere to anywhere.  The caveat is that he doesn't do regular runs so sometimes you have to wait a while. For example, while he is up in Queensland, he can pick something up and then may store it at his warehouse in Adelaide for a while before he does a run to Perth.
You can phone Doug on 0422993280.  He also advertizes on Gumtree.
Cheers,
Alex

Hey smalls, thanks for that, that is a good price from Qld.  I have a mate that is thinking of getting an RM 250 from Qld to Perth so i will let him know.

Hi fella's
I just purchased an RM80N and Doug will be Victoria next week 28th Aug and heading up the east coast.  Good time to get stuff picked up and dropped off for a good price.  He is bringing my bike and a mates bike back to Perth in a month or so.

I like giving Doug a plug as he is cheap and cheerful and has a no hassle approach.  He is in Perth next week 15th/16th (dropping off an RM80N at my house), so if your in Perth and want a bike or bits sent over east, now is the time to organize it.  He does door to door at a good price... just takes a while so if your not in a hurry then its a great option.

Thats good Jim, im glad he is getting used and abused.  He is dropping off my bike and a mate of mines bike on the next street but will probably just drop both at my place.

Just a heads up.  Doug is in Sydney today and going to Howlong NSW tomorrow. He is then heading south to Victoria, then to Adelaide and then Perth.  He will be in Perth on the 9th April. He now has a big enclosed trailer he tows behind his removals truck and is set up for bikes.  Doug delivers bikes door to door and is cheaper, less fussy, but slower than the big boys.  If you want a bike delivered door to door at a good price then he may be for you.  For example, he is picking up my bike in Howlong at the previous owners address and delivering to my home in Perth for $450.  So, anyone in Perth have something to send over east... now is your chance..
Here are his schedules for the next 3 months around Oz

Doug is in Perth at the moment and dropping off another YZ125K to my address tomorrow.  He will be in Perth until Saturday and has room to backload another bike over East.  He goes all over OZ, door to door and there are no hassles.  He is about half the price of the big boys.
