Car moving

Post by Village Idiots »

Is there a car mover anyone can recommend?
Moving from the South (Hants) to the North (Lancs).

Thanks in advance.

Obvious one but I've used AA "move my car" a couple of times, expensive but reasonably reliable.

I also used http://www.lizardlogistics.com - recommended via ClubGTI. Again, not exactly cheap but reliable.

I've had nothing but hassle from jokers via Shiply and the like.

I've used http://www.flyingbluedog.co.uk a few times in the past, he's been reliable and reasonably-priced.

i rented a trailer for not much money but you will need a good tow vehicle to pull it fully laden.

When I bought mine, I hired a self-drive transporter for the day

Not too expensive either
