Anyone have suggestions for the cheapest way to send a small parcel (couple or 3 kilos) within NI? Is Royal Mail the cheapest?

All the best

    No royal mail are not.

    Go with Collect+.

    Does it need to be delivered to the door? If it can be picked up at a local store, like a spar, it's even cheaper.

    Anyone actually used Collect Plus - looked at their website and it looks good and very cheap.

    Had Ebay stuff sent via Collect+ - lifted it at my local Spar.

    Try Myhermes.co.uk, very similar but they collect/deliver to your door

    Used collectplus lots but to send parcels to the mainland. Good prices but kinda slow delivery times.

    Collect plus are cheaped than myhermes. I've used them with amazon and virgin. They use Yodel but I haven't had any problems. If you can pick up at a shop they are good.
