    Have you a full license? Renting a car or van could be an option if you do. Probably cheaper too.

    I used to live in Cork. There's a lot of Taxi companies that would defiantly do a few return trips unless your moving a lot of breakables, then I'm sure they won't accept liability

    A few return trips in a car wouldn't have to be a mini bus.. I would stand outside your current residence and try hail a passing taxi man or Hackney and explain.

    We were moving last year and our guy we had booked for a week cancelled 10 minutes before he was meant to show up!

    We eventually got a guy called Vacho from GXG and he was excellent, very reasonable as we were moving about the same distance as you. They do Ikea trips, so I don't know if he's around every day, but worth a shot if you haven't tried him. He's on Facebook here: https://www.facebook.com/gxg.delivery/?fref=ps_result.
