561 forum posts 80 photos | Vic Haines Transport in Pershore will oblige, try ringing them on 01386 553288. Lorry with a loading crane or palletised or whatever. No connection, we use then a lot at work and they travel all over the country. I've had stuff on a return load from Scotland no trouble, prices as good as anyones. In a previous existence I used Charles Russell Transport in Tewkesbury. Might be worth a try on 01242 680678. I see their lorries all over the country, so they're still at it. No connection to either - just a happy customer. HTH Simon |

I've used him several times for machines including a series 1 Bridgeport which was a task and a half. Affordable, very hard working. |
