Any recommendations for shipping a bike to the U.K, I'm trying to sell something that is considered less ugly in the U.K. a recommended freight company would be a good start.
(and any gotcha's to look out for)

cheers!

I bought my old chop over a few years ago using these guys, we're really helpfull with no major hassles, and it arrived here in one piece (as old, knackered and as uncomfortable as it always was :woohoo:)

I assume they freight the other way as well

I'll watch this thread with interest - I will be accompanying bike on the journey in 6 months.

I used Kiwishipping from USA to NZ. While I know they dont go to UK, if you contact them they may have a recommendation...Kiwishipping is Main Freight...hope that helps.

make sure the quote includes handling at the other end

otherwise you are in for a nasty surprise

NZVANLINES rip people off big time for what it costs to unload a bike out of a container - almost as much as what it costs for the freight
