Question: Hi, thanks for your bid. Flexibility is no problem. I have to pay for 2 weeks notice on the unit whenever it is emptied, so you could collect any time you wish, except on a Sunday. It's difficult to give lots of detail when placing a job on this website because the number of characters is limited. I just want to check something out with you. My stuff is in 'Big Storage' in Macclesfield, in a self store unit that is 5 feet X 5 feet X 7 feet high. It doesn't completely fill all of the 175 cubic feet, but it's fairly close. There is only one bulky & heavy item which is a rolled up small inflatable boat, along with it's 4 flat wooden floorboards. There are a few things like a bunch of vinyl records, a desktop PC case, a musical keyboard, and a large, thin solar panel that could not be packed into the available 480 X 380 X 280 mm standard small packing boxes. The majority of the cardboard boxes are sealed, and fairly light - just things like books, DVD's, Software, clothes. Many are half empty, as I had a bad back when I was packing them, so packed on keeping weight down rather than volume. There is nothing mega valuable or mega fragile. But can you just confirm that you have sufficient capacity to allow for close on 175 cubic feet ? I just dont want any unexpected surprises for your driver, if I give the job to you. Thanks, Malcolm. - (02-04-2013) Response: yes that all seems ok, van is just short of 6 ft high, its about the same width and about 12 foot long so im sure it will fit no probs, thanks, - (02-04-2013) Question: Hi, I've accepted your bid. I'll wait to hear from you about a collection and delivery date to suit yourself. I've sent the key for the unit back to Big Storage in Macclesfield. They will let you have it when you arrive, after I give them your name and van registration number. Please advise me of your proposed dates, so I can give the necessary notice for the storage unit. I have to give 2 weeks notice anyway, so as soon as you give me a date for the collection, I'll let them know. I can pay cash on delivery, here in Fareham, if that's OK with you. Please call me, or email if you have any queries. Thanks, Malcolm. - (02-04-2013) Response: No reply yet

Questions

Question: Hi do you have any dates for this delivery.regards Brian - bwilson (02-04-2013): Response: Hi Brian,

No, completely flexible. All the stuff is in the storage company. It's available on demand, but I have to pay them 2 weeks notice anyway. So even if someone collects it tomorrow, I've still got to pay for another 2 weeks of storage.

Obviously once I've got a firm quote from a carrier, I'll get the notice period put in.

Regards,

Malcolm.
Question: Hi Malcolm thanks for the reply and info I could collect saturday and Deliver Sunday if that is any good to you.regards brian - bwilson (02-04-2013): Response: Hi Brian,

The storage outfit is open from 9 - 4 on Sat, so collection would not be a problem on Saturday.

I'm available here in Portsmouth all day Sunday too.

Have you got a cost for this job please ?

I'm trying to get a few quotes to compare prices.

Thanks,

Malcolm.
Question: Hi Malcolm cost two two five for that.cheers Brian - bwilson (02-04-2013): Response: Hi Brian,

I just wanted to let you know that I've accepted a bid from another carrier (as a courtesy to yourself).

Thanks for your offer, and help.

Malcolm.
Question: my bid assumes it will all fit in a lwb iveco 3.5 ton van, (hi top) - safe-sound (02-04-2013): Response: Hi - I've just sent you a message about this. The unit is only 5 ft x 5ft by 7ft high, so I think there will be shedloads of room left in your van.

Cheers,

Malcolm.
