Best Courier For Car Breaker?

JPS29

Hi.

Can I tap into the more knowledgable people on here please.

I break cars and sell the parts on ebay. Basically anything and everything that I can get off goes and I'll send it by courier, with the exception of engines and gearboxes, they are either pallet or collection only.

When I was doing this part time and only sending smaller parts interparcel seemed to suit my needs, however as the packages are getting bigger, longer, heavier, they are sometimes massively more expensive than the others.

I have also used parcel monkey twice, 1 happy experience 1 not so.
I have sent stuff via standard parcels at the PO, is this the same as parcel force????

Does anyone know of a courier that would suit all my needs?

Basically they are

Large size of packages (think car bonnet as largest I send)
Weights prob upto 25 kilo but more often than not sub 10kg
proof of delivery incase of any ebay claims
Collection from my business premises between 9 and 5 .30
online tracking
currently sending 10-20 items per week but as the business grows this will be at least 10 per day

It would be great if I didnt have to check every different courier or reseller each time I make a sale so really appreciate any advice.

It may pay you to contact some of the courier companies directly as l believe the number of parcels you are currently sending may mean you can have an account with them, thus cutting out the middleman so saving money and hopefully you would have a regular driver which can be of benefit in many ways.
