I am looking to ship a few pieces of bedroom furniture from Scotland to Javea.

Could anyone recommend a company?

Hi Glady

We have arrived a few weeks back in La Marina from Birmingham and were recommended GOT Transport Services.

John and Cat were excellent in organising and sorting out our move from UK.

They have a depot in Central Scotland as well

You can find them in Facebook or send me a private message for their details. Great service from a family business

Cheers Ian

Hi

Initially the prices were so high that it was not cost effective.

I then got a really good quote from a guy through Shiply I think his name was Martin Ernst. Unfortunately he could not deliver at a suitable time.

I am now using Transit through Anyvan. They seem good and are reasonable. They are picking up tomorrow so time will tell - they certainly got good reviews.

Anyvan negotiate a price for you.

If you e mail me after 12/12 I will tell you how I got on.

Hi the new tiled floor should be completed in Feb so it would be better for me if we ship the Spanish furniture 1 at around the end of Jan or 1 at week Feb if possible.

Or if suits you better Stirling stuff goes out after floor is laid then transfer Spanish stuff back to Scotland next can run which would need to be within 2 days as I have no room or space to keep both lots in Spain! Small quad  house!! 

Thanks
