Default Anyone know of a courier for an engine

Hiya guys I've seen an engine I'm after.
It's down in Hampshire I'm up in Yorkshire.
Can anyone reccommend a decent courier to transport it for me?
Or have an idea how much it could cost me?

Cheers guys

I used parcel2go.com which used palletline or someone to collect. It cost £75. I wrapped it up super well and strapped it down to the pallet.

Paisley delivered me some wheels with minimal fuss, so get my vote if they can provide a pallet service too.

Lots of places won't touch engines now, even palletised, Tony.

Too many feckwits don't drain the oil out of them.

Yep parsley freight do pallets but you have to do an enquiry to them and they send back a quote.

I used speedshift to send engine to Belgium, best price and delivered in 2 days

Right paisley seem to be a favourite, does anyone know the weight of a short engine?
Quite annoying as I was working there about 6weeks ago haha
