I get seeds and bulbs from companies like Eden Seeds and now Greenpatch Organic Seeds who are just down the street from me here, and in their catalogue there are lots of items that are "not for Tasmania". So it's obviously not just the hops.

Just spoke to the nice lady again and while I need to digest further information here is a quote from the email..

"The material must be clean and free from soil, insects. An inspection on arrival would be required, so on the package via mail you would need to mark ATTN Quarantine Tasmania – with the clients address.
Should we find anything of concern within the vacuum packed hops – it may be opened by the Quarantine officer. If it is all in a clear plastic package and easily visible then should be okay"

Cheers

what all that mean..if they can see what's inside it's ok

Yeah thats essentially what she said mate, as long as they can determine that it's 'clean' they wont open it.

I do have to file other paperwork so it's a bit of a PITA, going to have a dry run with a mate of mine down there, will send him some and test delivery times and how long it takes door to door so I can assess it for folks.

This is Tassie, we are all mates down here, although it is slowly being overrun by Queenslanders. I will wait and see how much stuffing about it is for you, but thanks for the effort that you have put in to working out a solution. I am sure your mate will be happy to recieve his parcel as well.
