Just sold an engine to someone in Scotland. Phoned palletways and they told me they don't move engines after previous incidents.

Anyone know any companys who might do it? 1 pallet, engine is 135kg and then add pallet.

Ive shipped many engines in the past and it can be a pain 1 always ship dry 2 build a frame to make sure it cannot fallover .I'm sure with a bit more research you will find a carrier who will move it but perhaps not cheap ,loading and unloading can be a drama too esp if shipping to private address I doubt this is much use but good luck
