I would like to recommend Stuart Spicer as, like many other business owners, I have had to place my reputation at various times in the hands of a courier company. I have done just that with Stuart and emerged with my reputation intact. His company is conscientious, good at communication and friendly to boot. In the business community, knowing a company with the capability of Spicer International is essential. Store their number carefully in your little black book.
