Your best bet is to probably sit there with the yellow pages and ring all your local transport companys surely at least one of them goes to england regularly and can stcik you pie factory on there cheap enough!

Then again you should have told the bidders it was up to them to sort out transport!

sounds about right to me...
i paid £40 for a machine to be delivered from Nottingham to my home a round trip of 80 miles......

Give people like Citilink, DHL and Parcelforce a try. Probably have scheduled deliveries across the UK

Mark Parcelforce has a max of 30kg according to their web site...But I had a car engine delivered to me in Brighton from Huddersfield for a flat £40 sure that was City-Link....That must weigh much the same---
