Apparently he used Shiply at first , then found another company called Uship http://www.uship.com/LandingPages/cu...ed_kingdom.htm

He was getting quotes of about £140 to bring a bike down from Newcastle to North Wales and all of a sudden 2 quotes came in at £65 so he took the one that had the best feedback , very positive about it all he was . He did say though that these people are just a man with a van who happen to be going that way for something else so you may have to wait a few days so they can arrange drops and pickups so they are not all over the place .
