Anyone used Paisley Freight - 24 Hour Courier ?

Need a winch bumper shipping from Bristol to Ipswich, the site quotes £26, seems cheap.

Anyone used them before?

Seems the guy works from home in paisley.
Google maps show his van outside the house.
Take it he must use someone closer to your address.
Can't see him driving from Glasgow to Bristol to uplift for £26

Guy who bought some tyres from me used him, as he was in Scotland. They were picked up by TNT, so I guess he doesn't do it all himself...

Paisley sub it all out. I used them for some alloys and it was TNT who actually collected/delivered it.

All went fine though £30 for a set of Alloys from Swindon to Liverpool way wasn't bad!
