Car Delivery service

[wrighty]

In case anyone else ever needs a car collecting or similar I have used these people to get some good quotes - £140 all in for a 120 mille delivery on a single car transporter.

There is the opportunity for other providers to outbid other peoples offers, as soon as project has been delivered I will give some necessary feedback.

Thats not very cheap, should be looking at £1/mile.
Thats what i charge!

Really?

Problem I have is that most people charge round trip this is only the loaded component of the journey. Other quotes I was being offered were in excess of £200.

In previous projects I have hired a trailer and collected myself but no tow bar at the minute!

So this leads onto a question then does anyone know who can delivery a car from Kidwelly, Carmarthenshire in Wales to Trowbridge (120 miles for less than 140 quid all inclusive.........?

Try Stan, He's based in Wales.

Ok Matt will try him see if he can do any better!

Cheers for the pointer.

its 140 miles according to multimap, so at 1£ per mile thats a good price. plus £11 for the bridge.

plus for me, its about 15miles from my place to where the car is---i'd be asking £150/160 tbh.

HI Thanks for the reply Stan! I have just been bid £125 on the listed site so I feel that it is not going to be much better than that!

[wrighty]

The bidding war by service providers continues! Just been offered collection for £109 by a transporter company! Dont think it is going to be much cheaper!

[AndyFielder]

isnt it cheaper to rent a trailor and DIY

[wrighty]

That is what I used to do but have no towbar since I changed cars.

Plus trailer hire, fuel, severn bridge toll costs make it seem like a respectable deal to me. Latest bid is 100 so for what is about a 250 ish round trip is a reasonable deal to me!
