mariag 4 Posted July 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2008 How much are you shifting (My rates are very good) According to quote from Bonner s 800 cubic feet... I have been brutal on a 4 bed house - only taking what I really want -practically given away husbands garage load of tools tee hee. Have yet to start on daughters junk.. Dearly love to get rid of tons of cuddly toys, shes having none of it.... Seriously are you a removals company or what? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bip 88 Posted July 1, 2008 Report Share Posted July 1, 2008 I cannot speak for beefy but I beleive he was once removed. Personally I did mine on me own with my lads help [he drove the horse & cart] Bip. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bip 88 Posted July 1, 2008 Report Share Posted July 1, 2008 Can anyone reccommend any good removals for abroad - not pickfords thankyou. Also had a quote from Bonners.. Before I moved I too had a quote from Pickfords and found them at least twice the price of many others thats why i settle on a horse & cart. But joshing apart I hired a Van from Beeston Van Hire but I don't think they would let you take one of their vans abroad..I stand corrected if someone knows otherwise.... I have just thought of another way to transport goods abroad and that is by ship container. My late wifes brother inlaw brought his Toyota 4x4 back from australia in one, he did say at the time that it wasn't expensive to ship. Bip. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beefsteak 305 Posted July 1, 2008 Report Share Posted July 1, 2008 No not a haulage firm ; Just a bored unemployed former long distace lorry driver (I forgot for a minute that you are going to Dubai) But if you hire a 7 1/2 truck (As long as you only have about 3 tonnes of gear) i can get it there fot you for a decent few days pay!!!!!!!

Frank 13 Posted July 1, 2008 Report Share Posted July 1, 2008 Can anyone reccommend any good removals for abroad - not pickfords thankyou. Also had a quote from Bonners.. I've used these in the past to transport goods to Spain http://www.britannia-freight.co.uk/ Very reliable and reasonably priced I thought. Last consignment, 2 pallets and some boxes, £340 + vat. Goods arrived as planned 3 days after collection. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
