50kg delivery?

PugLady_2

Can anyone recommend a good 50kg delivery service for a parcel thats 160cm x 70cm x 14cm.
I've looked online but most state smaller parcel dimensions.

You could try www.shiply.com they sell space on vehicles. You just put the detials and wait for the bids. Just be careful though as some people have been let down by couriers on the service but I guess thats no different to anyone else using small couriers.

easier if you can break it down into 2 packages

I'd never heard of shiply before, but I'll give it a go. Like you say you can be let down by any courier so its worth a go. Thanks

Sadly it can't be split as its a tv unit.

Just seen that you say it's a TV so think you may struggle with insurance from most firms.

Yes, RHA terms apply to most couriers which means they limit insurance cover to £3000 per TON, or £5000 at "extra insurance" rates (that's £3-5 per kilo)

And some carriers will only cover new goods and will pay out the value of your invoice (not the selling price).
