Hi,
I'd be grateful for any PM suggestions for a company or individual who could collect some wheels which I've bought and deliver them to me.

In brief the vendor's address is difficult to access in anything other than a 3.5t van and the wheels are loose (unpalletised) so pose a handling challenge from H&S and time point of view.

thanks!

Give us some more detail, just how big are these wheels and tyres and where from/to.

Put them up on Shiply, wait 24 hours for the price to drop - just taken delivery of a sailing dinghy that wasn't on a trailer etc, wasn't too expensive, guy put it in the back of his big Ifor Williams Trailer with the mast up on the ladder rack

Same suggestion, use shiply but be picky. There's plenty of chancers on there but also plenty of good honest hard workers and it's pretty easy to tell one from the other when they pitch to you with their price.

This would be helpful. Someone on PH may be able to help.
