I have bought an apartment on the Costa Blanca and will need to move some furniture from England, Probably would be about a luton van's worth.Would anybody be able to give me any ideas on how to get it transported and how much it would be likely to cost, it would be going from just outside London.
Thanks

Once you have a price that you are happy with you will have to decide if it is worth transporting these items, or would it be cheaper to simply buy new when you get here.
It will be important to label all your items properly, and those that are fragile or cannot be stacked should be labeled in English as well as Spanish. Keep a detailed list of your possessions. Ensure that the Company that you use has insurance, and read the terms and conditions.
A second alternative is to hire a Luton van and do it yourself. You can be more or less sure that your stuff will arrive in one piece.
Lastly, you could advertise that you have an amount of gear to bring over. You may get lucky and find somebody in a similar situation and be able to share the cost.
If the apartment is going to be for rent then don't use your furniture buy some cheap stuff when you get down there, also how much furniture if any comes with the apartment and if it is new can you purchase a furniture pack of the vendor.
