I need to purchase 3 Dog Crates to take my dogs back to the UK, 1 small for a Yorkie and 2 larger ones for 2 Boxers, can anyone let me know the best place to get them from. Have time to order online if that is going to be the cheapest option.

I believe it's better and cheaper to get them made out of wood, than buy the plastic moulded ones. One reason is that the wooden ones can be tailor made to the size of your dog, to the nearest inch, whereas the plastic moulded ones generally come in only 4/5 standard sizes, so when you're paying for air-freight by the cubic kg, it's best to get your box as small as is legally allowed for your dog. If you check out Dubai Kennels and Cattery's webside www.dkc.ae you can get them made through them, and these is a good info page about travel boxes.
