Best Courrier for transporting milled wood

[sylvaarb]

Hi there

 

I have a customer who would like to buy a few peices of my milled up wood (roughly 8'8" long by 20 inches across by 2 inches thick to make some bespoke kitchen worktops. It's too far for me to deliver (but within the UK). I said I would look into courriers. Who do you recommend?

 

Many thanks

Drop Jonathan (Big J) a pm - he has a good courier for this.

8 1/2 foot x 20 inch is pretty huge and I imagine would have a fair bit of weight to it.

 

Might be worth looking at pallet shipping. I used to use Palletline when i sold bits and pieces of machinery in the uk. As long as you have access for a 7.5t truck and can get hold of a pallet this may be the cheapest option. Your dimensions would make it a double pallet so around £60-70 I think.

 

Your limited to about 800 - 1000kg on a pallet so you should be ok

--------- Probably nearly double that price now ( I deliver palletised goods for a living ) do not request AM / next day to keep costs down , sometimes if other goods can be stacked on top of yours can be a bit cheaper as well ( saves space )
