Which Courier Company to use ?

TheodorasBox

Hi all,

Apologies if this is in the wrong section.

I am looking for a courier company that is reasonably priced (between 5-7 pounds) for the following type of item.

Giant Floor Cushions (90x90x25 cm approx)
Weight - no more than 2kg.
Average comp of 50 pounds for loss or damage
Delivery time 3-5 days

Can anyone help and suggest.

My Hermes and UPS say that it is beyond their max dimensions.

Thanks, Tea

Last time I sent a load of cushions I put them in a binbag and squashed the hell out them so they looked like pancakes and then they were of an acceptable size for a courier.

What he said. Maybe try a vacuum sealing bag.

The only ones would have been City Link

Collabora

get a vacuum sealing bag bag which will reduce their size to at least half then use parcel2go.com to compare couriers

if you can get it to 45 x 45 x 15 then you can get it collected and delivered for under £10

..and if you're a new P2G customer i think they are still doing the £10 off yourt first order.

i'm getting fed up of making new email addresses for that..
