Has anyone done this and who did you use? Apparently can't send something that once apon a time had fuel/oil in it

I sent one with fuel and oil removed, and declared it as spare parts when asked.
The other alternative is to put the body in a strong carton and send the bar separately.

Can you use a trucking company who had a depot near where the chainsaw has to go to?

NZ Post prohibits pretty well anything from being posted - https://www.nzpost.co.nz/personal/sending-within-nz/prohibited-restricted-items.

It's no wonder they are buggered as a business.

Let's have a wee game here - can anyone list an item that they DO allow?

Yeah just send it as engine parts, I have sent many chainsaws this way. Never had a problem, they won't open it to check.
