Bonsoir à tout le monde! This is our first post on th LF forums. Good to be here... A brief introduction: The Athertons are myself, Neil, and my parents Norman and Marion. We have a holiday home in the Ariege (09), which is the subject of this post: we would like to transport several bulky items from England (Greater Manchester) to the house in South West France. Taking it there ourselves isn't really an option - too time consuming, tiring and expensive too (considering ferry crossings, van hire, péages, fuel, hotels etc.) So I would like to know if anyone can recommend a reliable moving company. Also your experiences and opinions... If you represent a removals firm, you are welcome to email us and give a qoute. We will be looking to do the move in March 2005. We will be moving some flatpack kitchen units, a four-ring gas hob, a brass bed (just the ends and running supports, not a full-sized divan base) and a three or four cardboard boxes. This is not a full-on removal. Thanks in advance for your help, recommendations, advice and opinions. Regards, The Athertons
