Hi all, 

I’m looking for a way to transport a large item (1.5m x 1.5m x 0.5m approx) from East Anglia to Playa Flamenca in December 

Any suggestions would be welcome

Hello Andyb1208

Look in your local area for the HERMES collection point - they tend to use local stores so you should not have to travel far. We sent two parcels from yorkshire to Costa Blanca in January. Received within 7 working days and v reasonably proced.

Hi 

I found a company Alicante Freight Services.  www.alicantefreightservices.com/ 

I was looking to purchase a large BBQ and have it transported out to Playa Flamenca as this is much cheaper than buying them in Spain!.

I purchased the BBQ from Argos and used the delivery address of Alicante Freight Depot in Essesx( details from their website) to have it delivered direct to them.

They calculate their delivery to Spain by the measurement of the item in cubic metres. In my case £35.00.

They will have this transported out to their depot in Rafal where I can either collect it myself or have them deliver it to our property in Playa Flamenca for 20 Euros.

They do removals, storage also.

Staff I spoke to on phone were extremely helpful.

Give them a call.

Hi Andyb1208, if you look on the Talk Quesada forum, they have a post discussing this exact topic, with quite a few recommendations, there is also a link included on one of the posts, that give several alternative companies plus prices.  Beware of Hermes though, as apparently there delivery service to Spain can be a bit iffy.
