  • Recently someone asked about shipping/transporting delicate equipment and there seemed to be some forum expertise. Was that on this thread?

  • What in particular are you looking to ship? I know a lot of people (inc myself) have had good experiences shipping bikes, delicate musical instruments and things like heavy alloy wheels using Paisley Freight.

  • Thanks @atk

    It's to transport a painting from Somerset to London. The painting is quite big (110x70cm), fairly heavy, and the oil paint is in tall 'spikes' to the front which can be easily damaged. One issue is that the painting has lost its packing case, and I'm not entirely sure how much time/inclination the current owner has to deal with it.

    So, it's a little bit precious (it's art) and a little bit fragile, awkwardly sized and heavy, but not a piece of precision equipment or anything like that. I just have no idea who is appropriate to ask or how much it might cost.

    Paisley Freight, Martinspeed, Crown, Constantine - all worth approaching?
