Cube mk2 and WIR

[Tink]

Thought this might be of use to some of you if considering buying from ebay.... I recently saw a bargain on buy it now but it would have been an 8 hour round trip to pick it up. I found http://www.shiply.com. Great website - You put the details of the delivery needed on and couriers bid to get the work. I used a fantastic company called pronto and had the eglu delivered from London to Leeds for £46 (most other websites had quoted between £100-£200) within 2 days. Would highly recommend them if anyone needs anything delivering.

Thanks, that's good to know

I`ve recently used that site as well to have a bookcase couriered from Glasgow to Leicestershire. The bid we went for wasn`t the cheapest at £46 but they had excellent feedback and were really good, kept us informed about the collection and delivery times and delivered the bookcase safely.

Thanks for that. I have just registered with them to see if I can get a sofa bed from Dover to France for me. Fingers crossedx

Does any one know the approx dimensions or weight of a cube packed down? I have no idea but to get a quote I need some idea. I can put in the set up measurements I suppose but have no idea on wieght.

There was a thread about this a while ago

The cube is 80-kg and the standard run adds about 25kg i think Each extension is then 10kg. Sorry - dont know about an eglu but you could give them a ring and ask

Thanks

I used this site to get my omlet from Leicester to Lymington and was very pleased with the service now all I need is the chickens which is proving harder to buy then the house

does any one know the weight of the eglu and run

 

My Eglu was delivered from Omlet a couple of weeks ago. From memory, the delivery note said the Eglu was 35kg and the Run 20kg. Stand to be corrected, though... I'll see if I can find the delivery note to confirm!

Hi everyone.

 

A few of us have used this man with a van - Jake, 07885 731471. He charges £39.99 flat rate to collect and deliver to most postcodes south of nottingham.

 

He's been really reliable with me, I've had one eglu delivered and come extensions collected (also a sofa from southampton!!), all times- very professional and i thought very cheap- i couldnt have driven anywhere for that- what with the price of petrol!!

 

now you can have that far away cube!!

Just wondering, those who used the original posters courier, did the seller have to pack up the eglu at all e.g. wrap it in anything or did they pick it up with the run as is?

 

Thanks!

Thank you. I’m looking for one but can never find one close enough to home. This will be really useful as I can widen my search. Thanks for sharing.
