Am I right in assuming that if I want to send an item in a 75cm poster tube, the only option available is DHL 'Bulky item' at £14.95? Cheers.

  • I think you can chose medium parcel which looks like it would cover it for both Evri (which ships up to a maximum length of 120cm) and RM (the RM website shows tubes upto 90cm with the same pricing as medium parcels). Or simply choose Evri only as a postage option

    As above, I sent a 118cm skateboard for about £5 with Evri. The (drop off point) post office didn't believe and asked me for a phone number just in case they refuse - but all went fine.

    Saying that there is also the total length limit and big height reduces other dimensions, but for a poster it will be fine.
