I wouldn’t be put off by the cost of logistics these days, with more and more users of the internet there is often no choice but to use them. Pallet Line offer competitive rates for national delivery with varying services from 3-5 days or even next day.
99% of our deliveries are with a courier and seldom have issues on cost…
Can you list some images or drawings of the pergola’s you are referring too, do include timber type.
cheers
