Default Anybody driving to Portugal in a van???

Is anybody driving from the north west of England to Portugal in a van. I have two pieces of glass 100cm X 40cm and one being 100cm X 80cm.

I know you can get glass in Portugal but this glass has a picture printed on it and it's three meters long So to big for a car.

The glass is coming from Liverpool and i can meet anywhere once in Portugal

Anytime after the 24th of July

Yes, but you have 3 pieces of glass and each one is 100cm long. You don't have any piece that is 300cm (1m) long. All 3 pieces would fit in most reasonably-sized cars. You don't need a van that would suit a 3m long load.

I am sorry i cannot help you with the delivery but I do have some thoughts.
You want to trust that to someone else to deliver that to you in one piece?
What about import duties?
