Title: courier service
Post by: *paul_moss on January 29, 2008, 01:14:58 pm

Looking for a courier to pick up a buffing machine from Gateshead.
Anybody know any couriers to use and prices?

Paul

What is the weight of the machine?  Some Couriers limit the weight of a parcel to 25Kg.  To transport machines we use Lescost Transport (based on the Team Valley in Gateshead).  We have found them to be extremely reliable and very helpful.  Their telephone number is 0191 4820150.

A half-pallet costs in the region of £33.

They should accept payment via card but, if it is account only, I'll be only too happy to arrange things for you.

there are enough people on that we should be able to get things delivered for nothing by passing it along the chain!
