Old Red Celica Posted January 20, 2014 Report Share Posted January 20, 2014 I've been getting quotes from Parcel Monkey, but not used them yet. ParcelForce (Royal Mail) are my usual ones that I end up using. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skatz114 Posted January 20, 2014 Report Share Posted January 20, 2014 (edited) I've used these guys for 2 spoilers & 2 sets of wheels & had no problems at all. Booked one day, collected next & delivered day 3 with no issues of damage etc. http://stores.ebay.co.uk/cheapcouriersukltd/ Edited January 20, 2014 by skatz114 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
celicamojo Posted January 20, 2014 Report Share Posted January 20, 2014 on the few occasions that I do post anything, took it to the Post Office, so would presume Parcelforce. Everything gets there and its insured! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ams Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 hermes and paisley - Ive never had a problem and I send may 5-15 parcel with them a week - what problems have you had. Most of the time problems are down to sending parts that are not appropriately packed - or sending items that are easily prone to damage and too hard to securely pack - dont send doors, bonnets, tailgates - wings are a maybe if you can pack properly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ams Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 Paisley kick the carp out of parcels if its a big item - make sure its packed properly - all couriers throw parcels around also - every courier loses parcels - yodel./collect+ seem too loose more than most - not had hermes loose one in the last 6+ months Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan HX Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 APC 'lost' a few of ours... we now black wrap everything so it doesn't have DELL logos on, and use TNT/UPS. We tend to just send via Parcels2Go as its low volume so we can't get an account. The Parcel2Go option that doesn't have a brand is UPS in our experience. UPS by one of their drop off points (corner shops usually) represent good value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonic Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 TNT seams not to break stuff , I am sure rtp use them and had a cf bonnet , and fg lip delivered , and also I had a gen 5 door delivered by them , the door was wrapped but the seller left the window up and didn't wrap it , and it still got here in one piece , in all fairness , as stated before , most places will muller stuff from time to time , so it's more up to the packaging than the courier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
