A recommended shipping co fro the UK

[andyman2012]

Were looking to ship 2 cars and a scooter over from the UK and the prices seems to be pretty high, any suggestions on who to get quotes from

Thanks

We have used Andrews shipping twice now & have had no probs...

Andrews are supposed to be ok with cars but defo dont use for personal stuff as they are rubbish and con you out of more money than originally quoted as i foynd out. Wont be using them again.
Peter morton removals have just quoted 600 odd euros to ship a ped.

What's a ped? Moped? Pedal cycle? Pedestrian?

A ped is a moped. Sorry so used to calling it that without thinking

Thats what i seem to have found its the same price to ship a scooter as it is a car, seems a little crazy to me

I was told its due to them having to be crated to save any damage as they are not a roll on roll off like a car?
I will not be shipping one at these costs. Cheaper to buy one here i rekkon.

Yes they do seem to be put into a crate, shame as we found a great bargain on a new scooter, may have to just consider buying over there
