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
