We have been quoted just under 4k for sole use of 20ft, but will depend on where you are moving etc?

Hi,

Our goods are going from central Scotland to Calgary.

We got quotes from Britannia, Anglo Pacific and Doree Bonner, the quotes were all between £3K and £3.5k for a 20 ft container. Doree Bonner seemed the most professional and knowledgeable so I went back and negotiated with them, they lowered their quote by about £200 and knocked 0.5% off insurance.

If you do a search, you'll see there are quite a few threads with loads of details on different companies, costs and levels of service.

Hope this helps

Hi
I have just contacted [email protected], they fly with thomas cook airlines from manchester to calgary, seemed helpful when i spoke to them on phone. I want my dog to go direct to calgary which they do on Sunday flights.
When are you going?
