Report
Excellent service. After being messed about by other clueless shipping agents, we were recommended this company to try and we only wish we had tried them first! Heather and Dan were fantasic and soon had our container released and delivered on time as promised without any fuss and unnecessary expenses. We will certainly be using them again and recommending them to anyone who needs their services. Many thanks.
