Richard, I've dealt with containerized shipping if that's a help. You can ping me off list and I can give you some pointers. But the level of effort is probably absurd for what you're attempting to achieve. Basically you just want to get quotes from ANC Express (now owned by FedEx) and ParcelPost, from the UK websites. They both do a roaring domestic surface trade, and have international shipping capabilities of course. Given the exchange rate, I hope you got a good deal, because the shipping is likely to seem expensive because we've gone from $1.70=?1 over the last two years to $2=?1. Best of luck anyway.
