Folks,

Looking for enclosed car transport, from Aberdeen to Grimsby, its a pug 106 shell on rolling frame, no windows hence enclosed transport.

Any one able to or any contacts?

Thanks Robert

There's a site called Shiply that the logistics guys get work from.

I know a guy down South but not sure if he'd come up to Scotland without a job on the way up. Speak to Alex.

For the top end market - yes. If you weren't known and trying to break into it might be tough, but that's the same with any new business.

insurance for transporting such cars that people would want moved enclosed would be the biggest issue.
