[Closed] Any way to send a pair of wheels by courier without a box for packaging?

Lots of bubble wrap and brown tape?

bin bag.

you didn't have protective in your specification. 😯

I did receive a pair of wheels from the classifieds on here in a bin bag once.

If you don't have an appropriate box my local Halfords are always happy to give away bike boxes and they're easy to cut down.

Can't you just fashion a box out of cardboard?

There is loads of ways, but do you want to faf of having to refund the buyer if they get damaged in the post?

I am the buyer here so trying to come up with some solutions for the seller!

Pop into the local Halfords, they will normally have one or two wheel shaped boxes knocking around as they ship tyres and the like in them.

The issue is that there are no halfords anywhere near the seller and he doesn't drive.

Sort of gets me thinking about a STW Karma Courier group. I do lots of driving for work so wouldn't ever be an issue to pick up and drop off on my way...just a thought!

Where are the wheels. Maybe someone could drop off a box?

Haha...now the community of minds are thinking! Wheels based in Sleaford, Lincoln.

Any takers?

Maybe they could provide a box?

Iainc - super sloothing...nothing dodgy here though, just trying to get a pair of wheels! First post was on behalf of the seller...wording does sound a bit like i'm buying and selling though!

Geoff - thanks for the suggestion, they have no boxes as the chap has been in there!

Thanks all

🙂 not at all, I just thought I remembered you asking about a wheel box before !

You could post him a couple of empty boxes 🙄 Or Just an ordinary cardboard box with bubble wrap or cardboard spacers fabricated between the wheels works fine.

Double Bin liner and gaffer tape. Send seperately

Send him a flat packed box.

haha I think the best option is actually to post him a box....oh the irony!

My Hermes use code tvfree.

Thanks WYSIWYG...but is that for first timers only? Bit of a hermes veteran here!
