I'm at my wits end, who do you use for posting wheels?
I can find services to send parcels of the size of wheels for ~£10 but with little/no insurance, insured and you're looking at £30 or so from the royal mail!
I paid about that to have my wheels delivered from germany, with a bloody bike attached!
www.postagesupermarket.co.uk (or .com, I can't remember). It should be around £12 for Parcel Force but sometimes you just have to suck it up and pay for a decent service. I'd rather pay over the odds for a reputable, established service like TNT, DHL or UPS than skimp on postage and have My Herpes lose parcels.
not sure how you are working that out.
I sent one first class to someone on here for a fiver.
The second had to go by parcelforce because i was careless with the packaging, and it pushed it over the 61cm i think) width limit.
I've just had some wheels posted through myhermes go missing and they didn't help at all. Definitely avoid!
Not sure how you got them posted for a fiver, it's a pair of wheels + tyres which pushes it well over the 2KG limit. That and the fact the box is 70cm x 70cm
The quick quote doofer on Postage Supermarket is showing £12-odd for a 3kg package that measures 70x70x30 if that's any use, that's with Parcel Force.
Just had some wheels priced up for postage, £11.99 each fully tracked and insured for £200 with Parcelforce...having to use the wheel boxes i got with the new wheels to send. Not sure if it would be cheaper amalgamating the two boxes into a super box though
Parcelforce for me as well recently. About £12 in a wheel box with adequate insurance.
Second set of lost wheels here for MyHerpes. Avoid.
