Do I remember seeing a post about someone with a van doing trips to the UK and offering to tranfer goods for members? Or am I dreaming!

Hi halffull



No it wasnt a dream, but I cant remember who.

It was not that long ago so should be easy if you trawl through the back posts.

Hi halffull



It was me. Did do successful trip, but I was "warned" against making it a business.



Did get some hassle, but EVENTUALLY got it sorted.



If the new Government double the amount you can bring from South to North, things will be much easier!



I'm sorry, but I cannot help next time.

pond jumper,We paid £1500 and he dealt with all paperwork etc.He collected from our place in Alsancak and delivered to Birmingham,We got other quotes which were cheaper BUT it was part load on containers,We saw our stuff loaded and met Ismail in Birmingham,He has been doing this for 15 years.

Thanks pinkchilli, it was worth a shot and I have the contact details for Ismail so all is not lost. Also some useful info for others who might want a few bits brought over. Sorry your little enterprise was stopped.LOL
