Guest The Newlands Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 Hi all, we have now secured our shipping container. What a journey in itself!!!!! For the FULL packing and shipping service we have decided after getting 4 quotes, PSS, John Mason, Anglo Pacific and BRITANNIA Appleyard to go with the latter as these where by far the BEST in every way! £3590, no one could touch this quote and the communication was second to none. If anyone wants more info then please don't hesitate to ask. Sarah xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ali Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 It's a bit of a minefield isn't it. I have heard that if you go back to some companies and say A said they'd do it for this much ... B will match the cost. Personally, we used John Masons and couldn't fault them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest thepallis Posted October 12, 2011 Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 Cheers Sarah, Family are good, thanks, how's your's getting excited now it won't be long. George is now thinking about going and has said he is undecided not directly to us but to other people so that is a major change of heart from deffo not going, so I am now more hopeful. We actually have a Britannia in York so we will probably be directed to them, but will give them a call. Take care and remember red wine is good for your stress levels. lol xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
