Delivery cost

Hi guys, getting our Ford Eton motorHome delivered. Any companies you can recommend?

Hello and welcome to this most friendly and informative forum. Hopefully advice will come your way shortly. 

Welcome to the forum.  Its not something I have come across previously. 
Nice choice of van and the Mk7 Tranny is a favourite base vehicle with me.

Which area is it to be picked up from?

Mid Wales

If it is going to Truro or Telford I can otherwise no ideas!

A bit risky Hog   (for you and the OP) unless of course you are a vehicle transporter. Personally I'd get a a train and collect it myself rather than let somebody else loose with my new pride and joy.

Confused - OP location Mid Wales,   location to be picked up from - Mid Wales.

If your getting your van from Southern motorhome company in Bracknell.      I would recommend that you give the van a really good inspection and test everything.
Hope it goes well.

True but it could still be a few miles away couldn’t it?

Very good advice if you haven’t already done so.

Maybe my train idea is not such a good one considering all this Covid stuff but couldn’t a friend drive you? Anyway I see there is a comparison site for vehicle recovery firms:

I expect they are quite pricey. It may even be cheaper to hire a car (if necessary) and get someone to drive you.

Whatever  you decide enjoy your new van.

PS If you use a delivery firm make sure you do independent checks to make sure they are what they say they are.

Like PaulMold wondered, are you living in mid-Wales, and the vendor is also in mid-Wales? Unless you're very lucky, there won't be any railway connections. Can you give an indication of the two locations, so that we might advise better?

I share the extreme reservations about letting a stranger deliver your precious van. I'd ask a friend to run you to the vendor's. It would be better to have two people there, anyway.

The OP appears to have lost interest in opinions from the forum.
