How large is Large? Forklift job or handball, would it fit on a large trailer behind a 4x4?

Reefer, Best advise I can give would be to ring around in the Yellow pages, a lot will depend on the load, if you can lift it on with a fork lift, the price would be cheaper, compared to a lorry that would need a mounted crane for the job. If you get stuck, perhaps we could price up a trailer and tow it up there?

Is a lunp
chiltern transport 01895 820888 or 820777 one is a fax the other is the phone

welch's of hitchin sorry can not remember their number cause it is at work.

welchs should be cheaper but chiltern do a better job. ie it will get there the day you want it to and not the day after.

both use tailift vehicles.

but i reckon you could hire a tailft 3.5T for ?75 for the day and do it yerself???

Hire a trailer and take it yourself, gotta be cheaper.




Punchy does a good line in trailers if anyone needs to buy one (not a joke by the way)
