Hi all

I need to transport a classic car from Glasgow to Halifax.

Does anyone do that as a job on here, or have any good recommendations?

Very basically work on £1 per mile - anything less is a bonus

One way (obviously only on longer trips)

No - I don't know how they do it either.

If I recall, they try to batch up deliveries on to one large transporter. So there will be other vehicles on the truck going your way.
