not sure a chassis will fit on a pallet????.

may be worth hiring a van,but wouldn;t think you'll save much

well not so much a pallet but courier for large consignments, tried a few places, they can do it but anyone that can give me a price has left for the weekend.

was looking at a van, but after hiring a van, the petrol and getting someone to drive it (19 so cant hire a van) its going to be easier for them to deliver

Don't you have any friends or relatives that own a van, or know someone that does?

I take it the £/mile is one way, in which case you may as well pay it. They'll be insured for goods in transit etc.

If you hire a van it'll cost you that, if you drive, it'll cost you £40/£50 in fuel, more if you need to buy roof bars.
