Sending a large parcel

piratess

ive got an item listed on Ebay as a Pick Up Only due to its size ... Ive had a Q asking how much it would cost to post .... Ive never done this before.

Does anyone know of any companys i could get a price from ive tried ParcelForce which was £27.00 ..

are theyre any other companies i could try ?

x Thanks

I've got an account with these guys (you will find cheaper, and can't book online) but I think they are fantastic.

I know they move engines for a scrappy up the road so will take anything virtually.

Some others above will be cheaper but you can use Parcelforce via Ebay/Paypal which links it to the item and buyer which is (I think) about £10/£11 for the same service (we don't use it, so can't say how well it works!).

Be wary of some of the resellers, who open accounts with courier companies, sell on the services and then don't pay their accounts leaving parcels impounded or uncollected.
