If time is not entirely of the essence and you don't mind it stopping off at Leeds for a bit on the way down try Dave at JSD services - main business is transporting and storing classic cars but they do part loads for things like this, do a web search or consult small ads in classic car/ practical classics mags
good luck

Cheers guys. I've emailed JSD and I've thought about the hiring, but I have work comitments and it needs to be picked up ASAP.

Contact any local transport company. A chassis on it's end only covers the same space as a pallet which can be moved for £30-40 nationwide.
