Cheap Parcel Delivery Thread Mk4

Hi, I want to send a Parcel 12 kg from Portsmouth to Essex, but the sites I've looked at, pick up from a specific address. Do any of the firms have a drop off facility?

Thanks
Andy

Hi Lud'ers, all good now. I notice they've got a new snow advisory banner so perhaps that was being uploaded when you tried go on.

Hi Armitage,
Just got back from holiday.
Yes, all seem to be OK now

and thanks for letting me know.

My Mum is wanting to send a package to South Korea to my brother who is working there, sweets, photos, bed sheets!!
Last time she used Royal Mail who charged £20 for a parcel no heavier than 5kg.
Please could someone suggest some alternatives.
Cheers,
Foxy.

Cool, thats not a bad price either... what guitar is it out of curiosity?

And mine's a pint of Fullers London Pride if you're offering

It's a 1970's Gibson SG. Been gathering dust in the corner for years, hubby never plays it so it's being sold - credit crunch and all that!

Hi

I need to send an Apple iMac (value approx. £700). The weight is 15kg and the dimensions 60cm x 60cm x 30cm.

I was surprised to see that interparcel and parcel2go have computers and monitors in their prohibited items list so am looking for an alternative.

I've just tried getting a quote from Freightsearch - came to £25 (£15 of which is for £750 of insurance). However their website seems to suggest that insurance is only available for business users, not individuals - is this right?

Alternatively can anyone suggest a better service for me to use?

Thanks

That sounds like the best price you are going to get,
it cost me £35.00 to send 5kg to south korea last month via dhl.
