Posting HEAVY items

Kaminari_2

I know that this has been covered before but i have two items that are very heavy (30kg+) and i don't know where to start with postage costs or even how i am going to send them.

Couriers have been spoken about here before and i was wondering someone could direct me to their websites?

Ideally, they would pick up out of hours or on Weekend but i don't think i am in the position to be too fussy!

Thanks!

I use staples and I think they cover upto 32kg but not 100% sure. Their website doesn't give any details (that I've found) about this service so maybe try to give them a ring.

The only problem is you need to take the items there, they don't collect. It's £8 per item for 48 hour delivery and they use DHL.

I've never used any other courier so can't recommend anyone else sorry. There'll be someone along soon though!

Well as no-one else has answered here's a list of some others. Don't know what they're like though!

Ive just used Parcels4Delivery last week - which is on that list - excellent - parcelforce picked up the item and arrived the next day as described. A lot cheaper than Parcelforce too.l

If you are selling on ebay...just remeber your buyer might live in Shetland!! Not all delivery companies deliver all over the UK at a standard price!

As a buyer there is nothing worse than reading one price and then finding out the real cost is twice or more recently 3 times the quoted amount!
