Assistance in moving a trailer base required -
I’m looking to see if it is possible to get this Caravan Chassis brought up from Umberleigh North Devon postcode area EX37 to EH54 area or even part way

Background

Livingston Round Table – have a “santa sleigh” that was built on an old caravan base. -

We are doing some general tidying ahead of the festive period – and on looking at the chassis – It’s nearly on its last legs – and springs / shocks – etc – these are knackered –

I have tried to find replacements – but so far cannot find any- The brakes are beyond economic repair.


One option is to lift the sleigh onto a new chassis – hence post – I was looking on ebay and saw this one cheap – and also Galvanised – which should last a few more years. >> ebay link

There are others on the web but as a charity and trying to minimise any costs this looks a good option. All funds raised from the collections at Christmas is put back into the local community – Last year we raised over Ł4300 – and want to exceed that this year –

I have not bought the trailer yet as I wanted to find out if it is possible to get this moved first -
If you think you can help –either by assisting in the transport north or can suggest ways to get ths moved - please let me know asap –

maybe easier to just take off all the 'red bits' lay them flat on your roof ?

Save the hassle of dragging the scrap as well.

If someone can get it to North England (near Scotch Corner on the East, or near Blackpool on the West) I could probably get it towed to Edinburgh...assuming it's road legal to tow it! Defender "Puma" 2.4 110 County Utility (possibly the last of the 2.4's)
