[AusNOG] Shipping equipment to the US - Courier Recommendations

[Tony de Francesco]

I had been using Fedex for about 8 years, but recently they charged me
$11,700 to ship a pallet of equipment between the US and Australia.  In
recent months changed to DHL, who charge me about $4500 for the same size
shipment, and a much more powerful freight management portal.

Tony

Hi All,

We're shipping a pallet of equipment from Sydney to the US, mainly servers
and switches to East and Central locations.

We've used different couriers in the past with OK results.

I'm interested in hearing which shipping companies people are using.

Many thanks


Darren.
