Default Anyone know courier frim to collect from Essex-Inverness???

Have bought a 16i interior from a guy in Essex and need it transported to Inverness so does anyone know roughly how much this would cost and who would be the best to try and arrange it with ???

Cheers.

Takes an hour and a half to get from my house to Inverness, then its another 570 miles from Inverness to Essex which the AA routeplanner reckons will take 10 hrs so fook going to collect it !!

Hiring a van for 2 days and the cost of fuel and food will make the whole trip cost around £300 quid

Anyone have an idea as to how much a set of front and rear seats would weigh ?? Also have the door and interior panels.
Could do with a rough idea as to the weight as im sure thats the first question any courier company will ask when i enquire about getting them shipped to me !!!

i thionk you may be best getting it strapped all to one pallet and going from there. Seats will be too big to send via standard courier.

Have to call some couriers this afternoon to get quotes for collecting and delivering the interior, can anyone tell me roughly how much it would weigh ??

Its both front seats, the 2 sections of rear seats and both front door panels.

Cheers guys.
