courier delivery/sending parcels

vikki_louise

I send quite a few big parcels, and it costs a fortune to post. I found interlink but you have to send a min of 5 a week which i don't. it seems crazy when it costs double what the thing is worth just to send. Can anyone recomend anywhere please? I currently use send a parcel

There are lots of overnight parcel companies but many stopped taking on 'domestic' customers for two reasons;
Security after 9/11 & not enough volume to make money from you.

It is worth ringing around your local courier companies, many of these have account with the 'big boys' & can service your parcels through their account.

The post office is getting very expensive but there seems to be little alternative.

I used http://www.parcel2go.com/ I think it was around £10. They collect from your house. Cannot remember max sizes tho

Does the £3.99 means £3.99? Is there any surcharge? (I have a parcel weighs about 4kgs). I tried to email the seller, but only got a reply with a website address, which is out of order at the momment. Not sure I can trust it. Please advise.

I've dealt with this company selective2007 and had no problems. The £3.99 for 1-3 days is £3.99 no surcharges you must keep it within the sizes stated and up to 30kgs , i used the next day service when i bought a soft top for my brother's car on ebay it all went as planned and only cost me £5.99 next day delivery.
