Courier for heavy (36kg) parcel

Hi All

I need a courier to collect and deliver a parcel for me (Subaru Impreza WRX rear diff and shafts). Aylesbury to South Wales.

There are loads on eBay but they all seem to be resellers of somebody else's business???!!


The dimensions are 860 mm Long, 300 mm Wide & 300 mm high, it weighs 36 KG.

Can anybody recommend a decent firm. I'm reluctant to use Parcel2go as I've had problems with them before.

Regards

Wyn

I recently used Interparcel to get an engine block from Newcastle to Essex.

Was about the same weight, and cost me £30 ish?

Delivered in 48hrs too!

Or try ; http://www.lynxcouriers.co.uk/

Recommended by someone on the forum.

Shipping four wheels and tyres for me for £29.99 on 24hr delivery. That's £60 cheaper than the first firm that I asked!

I can't remember who told me, but thanks very much.





Tell them about the bent treacle edges!

I use Interparcel a lot. They usually deliver through TNT here. Oddly, their prices are cheaper than TNT, who they contract some of their work through.

Cheers,
Syd.

Edit; Forgot to say, DON'T have the goods put on a pallet, or you'll get charged big time!
