Someone on here must have a trailor!!!

Help out my lil friend julia as you would be helping me too

[astragirlie]

bump!!!! there must be someone that someone knows who has some capability to move this van!!!!!

I Know two people down my way (Haywards Heath near Gatwick) who have recovery lorries but they will want sensible money for doing it I'm afraid. This will likely be fuel costs - which will be a fair amount, and say half a day of their time. It isn't going to be cheap. I would say possibly &#163;200.....

PM me your number if you would like me to ask them.

20 quid near me to hire a trailer for the day, thats no use to you as its a couple of hundred miles away, but it shows its the cheaper option if you find one local to you for similar money.

[astragirlie]

the local hire firm wants a 500 deposit but he is my best mates ex hubby so that might be why ya know the stick us scousers get specially with these southerners they probably think we aint gonna return it!!!!

cheers for your help guys will have a call round a few recovery peeps see if i can sort summit out thatway

As chip said - vastly cheaper that way if you know someone with a tow hitch (with electrics too remember!).
Make sure you have some straps too etc as getting done for an insecure load will cost...

blimey, its 50 quid deposit for my trailer hire (the trailer I had at Billing and PV) and it comes with a couple of straps as well (although I tend to use my own too just in case)

[astragirlie]

anything must be cheaper than 500 as the van only cost me 75 quid i have a friend down the road who has a big land rover im sure he would help me if i gave him a few pennies for petrol and ive emailed my local trailer merchant asking the prices for trailers etc so hope he emails soon im a total noob at this car lark so scuse me for being noobish

I believe you ca write out a cheque of £500, give them that as a deposit and they dont cash it but except it as the deposit.

[astragirlie]

well just been quoted another trailor for 200 deposit but it has to be paid on a card not a cheque plus &#163;42+vat daily rate

ps can i have a sig please

girlie!

[astragirlie]
