Courier for long item

Looking for a courier to collect a parcel which is 2.7 m long x 150cm x100cm and about 8Kg in weight

Tried the usual suspects UPS, DHL but they seem to maximum sizes of about 1.3m

Can anyone make any useful suggestions?

Cheers

Mark

I'm guessing Mark has made a mistake and means mm not cm for the other dimensions.

If not, that's some really light stuff he's sending!

Assuming that it should be 150mm x 100mm, Interparcel will do it £9.85+VAT

Doh

Should be 2.7m x 15cm x 10 cm

or 8' x 6" x 4"

Interparcel seems to do it for about a tenner + VAT so I'll give them a go

Thanks all

Cheers

Mark

Quite like the Shipley idea too Pat
