Hi,
GB Liners, Fox and PSS are the 3 companies I am getting quotes from, only have 2 in so far, PSS guy seemed very professional, but quote is the most so far.

We used Doree Bonner. So far pleased with their service. Our container left the UK on friday so fingers crossed it arrives here ok.

We had 6 quotes, Fox were by far the cheapest, and the service was excellent from start to finish. Everything arrived on time, no problems

Re: GB Liners & Fox
Hi KJM,
We went with Robinsons (with quotes from Fox and Whites). Were we wowed?...err, no. Was their service acceptable enough?...yes. They got the job done. Their partner firm at this end (AMJ Campbell) were decent enough too. We covered our experience in more depth as part of our article...

Good luck with it.

Re: GB Liners & Fox
Well, given Fox couldn't get us an accurate quote and Whites didn't quite tick all our boxes, we still feel we made the best choice we could from the selection of firms that we interviewed by going with Robinsons. They could definitely have done the job better and they ended up needing more monitoring than we might have anticipated but in the final analysis - the stuff got here with just a couple of minor breakages. So, we certainly wouldn't say "don't use them", just keep a watchful eye on progress.
