More of a transport question than a business question but...

Last week I ordered some tyres from mytyres.co.uk. Great. Then a moment after placing the order I saw they were in Hanover, Germany...

Then I got to wondering how and by what route they'd get here. Would it be into a lorry then RoRo boat to Harwich? Or a container on a container ship to Felixstowe?

On investigation it turns out they were too big for the selected fitters so they refused to accept them.
- and unhelpfully didn't bother to tell you so you could get them fitted somewhere else...!

I'm using a local garage that already knows the car, not one of the 'partner' Kwik-Fit types.
