The following company has a lot of experience with specialist board
choppers:

They moved our chopper last year; the blade was sent to them
beforehand, so they could refit it at the same time as reassembly.
They also moved our veneering press into temporary storage. I found
them helpful, and patient with our timetabling difficulties.
