Can someone recommend a cheap car carrier ?

Hi all

I'm trying to avoid driving from Sydney to Ballina NSW (near the QLD border) to pick up our new camper trailer. I was hoping that I could get it carried back here to Sydney for only a bit more than the weekend and fuel are worth in order to go and get it ourselves.

I have had two quotes - one for $550 (Brisbane to Sydney depots) and another for $990 - which is obviously double. This one's excuse is that there is "more" handling with a trailer so they double the charge (Toll Autologistics). The trailer is only 650kg in weight, so both of these seem unreasonable - especially the $1,000 one.

Can anyone recommend a reasonable cheap carrier that might be able to do it for less?

Cheers and TIA
Chris
