Anyone know a courier that can book a collection to within 1 hour, rather than "tomorrow, between 9 and 5". Cant afford anymore time of work.

This isnt a bike on this occassion, but is a 35kg package that is to heavy to drag to the local post office.

cheers

Can you 'pop' it in the car (35kg?) and take to work and get them to collect from work?

I think DPD do 1 hour delivery windows now so may do the same with collection.

I'd check on max parcel weight/size for anyone you pick =though - I'd imagine some may see 70lb's for one man pickup as an H&S issue?

Thanks - it's a front door! It fits in my campervan, just. Dont fancy dragging it into the huge complex I work in though.

Think I've battered the retailer into submission now with some extensive quoting of the Distance Selling Regulations and they are going to collect at their expense.

cheers, useful to know for another time.
