_Typically_ 6 weeks, trusting the paperwork is in correct order and all
de-act certificates are to hand.
Moving it to the docks and loading will be awkward as very specially
licensed transport will be needed for this weight and width, together with
prior police written agreement. Depending on which counties are crossed
some police forces may insist on a police escort (chargeable). County
police forces will define the route and time of movement. If self-mobile,
hope that one docker knows how to drive it for loading. . . . . . . . . . .

You are well advised to engage a broker here who has done this before and
expect a fair sized bill as its a lot of work, should any delay or breakdown
occur during transport costs could spiral.
