Where do you live? Can't you ask 1 of these migrating hoards to put it in one of their crates for you??
Where do you live? Where's the rocking horse? If someone can ride it to Liverpool,we'll put it in our crate!

Read Dave in Aucklands post in 'shipping companies' thread-it's got an email address for shipping small parcels. Dan

Make sure your Rocking Horse has not got real horse hair! We have been told by our shipping company that we must remove ours Rocky's hair before shipping - poor lad!!
