I bring quite a lot of stuff into Tenerife from all over the world, The cheapest that I have found (door to door) is http://www.wedelivertheworld.co.uk
You don't need a trade account and you can pay by credit/debit card.
Their online form gives you an instant price.
I think 85kgs is a bit heavy (can it be broken down into 2 loads?)

Always get door to door delivery because picking up from the port is so much more hassle and paperwork.
Be warned there will be a Canarian importation duty to pay that no one quotes you for (usually around an extra €160), just use a company called TIBA to clear your goods at customs, it's all fairly automatic and easy, when your goods are on there way from Spain to Tenerife they phone you up to let you know that there will be a customs charge and they simply fax you a authorization form that allows them (TIBA) to carry out the customs clearance.
