Question Car trip to Dublin

I have to take a car load of stuff to Dublin sometime in the next few weeks.

What is the easiest and most cost effective way of doing this please?

I guess paying for a man and a van would be a bit OTT?

It would be Sussex to Wales (?) using M4 I would think. I don't like driving long journeys btw.

Thanks, David

Dublin you are best off from Holyhead & travel in the middle of the night to get cheapest ferry crossing and ease of traffic.

You might possibly find an artic back-loading service on the internet that will do it cheap for a couple of tea-chests though...

I would price it up with some local courier servise,
You're talking £220 for a ferry and £90 petrol and two days of your time!
Best of luck!
