Move a VW "shell only" (a 2 person lift ) - Croydon to South Melbourne
$300
Croydon South VIC, Australia
30th Oct 2025
Hi all! I need someone with a large car-sized flat trailer to help me move a 1970 VW Beetle "shell only" (not the chassis!! just the shell -- So it's nice a light; a 2 person lift only) from Croydon South in VIC to South Melbourne in VIC. You will also have help lifting it at both ends - but I need you to quote with 2 people to come to help please - so that we have enough people to make it an easy lift. How long will this take? The lift will take 5-10 mins only. The drive will take around an hour. So this is a job that will take less than 2 hours. If it takes longer, I will agree to pay more than your quote, proportionate to the quote (for example if it takes 3 hours to load, drive and unoad, I will agree to increase the fee by 150%). What vehicle do you need? A flat trailer that is at least 1600mm wide and 4200mm long. The shell is 4060mm L x 1550mm W x 1500mm H. When does this need to be done? Between 9am and 5pm any day over the next few days
Awesome to work with. Would do again in a flash.
