I used Anyvan to get a new ebike from Madrid to Wirral. Cheaper than DHL etc.

I've used Shiply a few times for getting spare steel car wheels delivered & even a galvanised Defender bulkhead. It worked well each time & was a lot cheaper than booking a stand alone courier.

I used them for a bulky item from Germany. Obviously lots of independent users so experience may vary. Mine was all good but it was a bit more of a logistics challenge with a slightly open delivery date, and then he rang to announce drop off he gave me less notice than expected so I couldn't get home in time, but he was happy to drive on to drop it to me at work.

I guess with a UK delivery you are more likely to get a definite day so you can make sure you are at home.

I’ve used Shipley for a bathroom sink and and tap with no issues. I thought the go to bike courier was Paisley Freight. I’ve had a bike delivered to me using them with no issues.
