As the title says, I'm looking for any recommendations for transporting a project vehicle (series 2a) from Cornwall to West Yorkshire.
I'm unable to do it myself as my vehicle isn't heavy enough to legally tow the Landy on a trailer.
I'm in the process of getting available dates and prices from Anyvan and Shiply but wondered if anyone had any recommendations. Any advice appreciated.
Thanks

Try Mike at West Country classic cars, a really good chap and gets things done at a sensible price. He's in the St Just area ( the one near lands end)

I've found 'DeliverMyMotor' quotes a lot cheaper than Shiply. You can check people's feedback too. I can recommend Jason on 07375 471749, who's done a handful of LR pickups for me, but the cheapest is likely to be someone who's based in either of your two locations, so you don't end up getting charged for the additional journey to their home/place of work.

Chap called Paul moved my Ambulance from Exeter to Todmorden. Great service and thought it was a very fair price. +44 7342 031343

Thanks for all the suggestions re transport. After contacting a few, I eventually went with a locally recommended guy called John, through Toms Recovery Services 07711844751 in Leeds.

They collected my Series 2a yesterday and brought it all the way back from Cornwall, at not too exorbitant a cost considering.

Top job, even helped me get it to where I wanted on the drive which is awkward enough with a running vehicle let alone one that isn't.
