Mrs kiwi has been at ebay again, and this time we have a sofa to collect from Manchester, and 2 large chairs from Preston. Both need delivered to Glasgow.

Who would you suggest I try to get the job done with collection sometime in the next week?

TIA

frown PART FAIL frown

Paisley Freight wouldn't collect the sofa from Manchester as it was furniture

They did however pick up the 2 lounge chairs from Manchester for the same price on the same day.

...Back to wait on Shiply, unless anyone has some more ideas?
