Cheap Parcel Delivery Official Discussion

That's the min top up each time. If you want a collection Tues then I'd give them a ring as you may find they can't do it that quick (or they may be able to - I don't know).

DH has sold a car bumper or something like that on eBay, it's relatively light as it's made from plastic but it's large. Any suggestions on who to use to send it? It's domestic. Many thanks.

You could try Paisley Freight or ParcelMonkey, or GwizzCouriers

Thanks, tried Parcel Monkey, they won't take it as it's 190cm long. Cheapest so far is Parcel Force at 25 plus VAT, will try your other suggestions though, thanks

Guessing the weight and dimensions, collectmyparcel.com have a City Link service at £13.79

Thanks jordanryan, unfortunately they are saying ParcelForce is cheapest, and Citylink won't carry car bumpers. Technically it's a splitter but its the same dimensions.

Gwizz might be coming out as the winners, just waiting to for the buyer to send his tel number to complete the quote.

Well, tried to - no one turned up yesterday. DH got an e mail this morning saying that the courier attempted pick up but was told the parcel was not ready for collection. Carp! Furious with them! They are looking into it and will get back to me. First and last time i bother with them.

Was it UPS? They're normally really reliable.

I agree UPS are very reliable, carnt really ever think of a time they did not collect on the correct day out of at least 5 years. i would suggest the fault may lie with Gwizz. As UPS are top of their game

Taadaa

No Citylink. They have backed down now and collected, to be fair to GWIZZ they called several times and were very polite, although they didn't apologise.
