Posted January 24, 201312 yr I am trying to ship a 43 inch shaft to Australia from the US. The post office is saying that Priority Mail has a length limit of 42 inches. Express is 36 inches. My buyer says he has received shafts from the US before. Has anyone shipped a box like this to Australia? If so, how?
January 24, 201312 yr Lie…. haha, ive shipped drivers to australia and usa and although there is a limit with EMS. they never check.
January 24, 201312 yr I guess you just have to deal with right person. Mine was 48, I repacked it 45.... still too long but they just did it. I have done several times.
January 24, 201312 yr Here is the the link to the Aus Post website showing a limit of 105cm. http://auspost.com.au/parcels-mail/size-and-weight-guidelines.html However, having read a few forums it appears the limit is a bit discreationary depending on where you post from. I have just received a parcel 48 inches long from Japan via EMS without any hassels. In fact they tried to deliver to my home and as no one was in I had in redirected to work without any hassles and no additional cost.
January 24, 201312 yr I actually wrapped one in bubble wrap and tape with cardboard to protect the ends and they didn't say a word. Driver shaft
