Engine Collection / Shipping
Thought I would post this as I struggled with some providers!
Pallet2 ship were terrible - every time you went through the booking there were a different set of conditions - after wasting a lot of time with them
they eventually said they wouldn't collect from a private address
Paisley Freight - used them for wheels in the past and they've been good but quote for an engine was unrealistic so never went further
Speedshift - www.speedshift.co.uk - a breath of fresh air!! Happy to pick up unattended pallet, didn't want the wrap split so the driver could
check there was no oil (actually treated me like an adult!), good communications and all worked well - they were also substantially the cheapest (Mine
was transported approx 250 miles for £55 (with insurance) and the driver helped me lift it at this end! - saving me a minimum of £30 over the
others)
I have no affiliation with any of these companies except as a satisfied customer of one.

Thanks for that, I recently saw an engine crane on e bay, collection only, at a
good price but the shipping cost made it far too expensive. I'll keep Speedshift
in mind when I next need to send/collect something.
