If it fits in the boot of a car, then you should be able to fit it on a pallet which is generally cheaper.

There's plenty of haulage firms that use pallet delivery networks. Usually a flat rate - around £30-60 depending. Make sure it is well protected of course. You'll probably need to tell them that it can't be stacked.

Suggest finding one in Yellow Pages (or yell.com) in Bournemouth area for pickup.

Looking at JK's suggestion for PostVan, they do it for £69.95+VAT.

Really annoying thing is that I'm coming to Glasgow on Friday but on the train!

Good luck.

Thanks Everybody!

Thanks Everybody for helping me out. Person selling the boat is not interested in dealing with couriers or whatever so ive had to pull out.

No good ebay feedback for him.

THANKS EVERYBODY ANYWAY!!!!
