I have a recommendation for moving machines.

Admin, if this is not in the correct place can you please move it to a better forum.

Hi all,

I have been asking lots of questions and people have been very good in coming back to me, so it seems appropriate that I try to pay back in a small way, as I have someone to recommend who can move machines at a realistic price.

I found him via the MrCrispin YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/@MrCrispinEnterprises), as I recalled that he had used him to move a Jones and Shipman 540 grinder.

Contact Ian Burgoyne on 0790 648 0925. He is based in the Midlands between Derby, Nottingham and Mansfield, but seems to be happy to cover further away if required.

He moved a milling machine for me from Bromsgrove, taking it to his warehouse overnight and then bringing it upto me in Huddersfield next day. After unloading it and getting it in the garage, he then took me to pick up a J&S Grinder from near Rochdale, which was then again unloaded to the garage. I understand he can lift up to 2 tons as single lift as long as its close to the truck and carry 3 tons or so. I am hoping that he will be able to pick up a lathe for me in a couple of weeks.

He is happy for you to assist but will tell you when what you are doing is not right I understand that he likes moving Bridgeport mills best.

Very approachable and professional in how he goes about things and the prices are quite realistic. Well recommended.
