Id like to chirp in here
It feels as though there should be some sort of resource here, for owners to club together so we can drop and collect cars in similar locations...
I know our service is expensive if it is a 'dedicated trip' and we make one leg of the journey empty. However, it is much much more affordable if we can do a 'double run' with both legs of the journey filled.
an example:
to collect a car from say, Northampton, would be £450+VAT. Quite a lot for just the one way. now, if split between two, £225+VAT is much much more reasonable. If there is a difference of around 20-30 miles extra between locations we don't mind.
This way, you know you are getting a secure delivery - with a driver that isn't going anywhere else, in a covered trailer with experience getting Atoms in the back of a van and tieing it down.
also bear in mind we can collect anything 'on the way past' for example...
A delivery in Nottingham would be £625+VAT for a dedicated delivery. If we collect in Cheltenham on the way back... we can deliver to Nottingham for £450+VAT and collect from Cheltenham for £175+VAT.
if its of interest let me know, or, if not, no probs!
