Sold my sons bike on ebay and need to post it to surrey. I thought parcels to go were best value but its coming up that its an oversize parcel.

How big will it be? I am sat at work and cant measure it. I guessed at 2m long by about 1.3m high.

Weight about 11 kgs

Its a spesh hotrock 16"

Thanks for any help

Take the wheels off it- probably 1.1m long/25cm wide/60cm tall (in a frame box)

Hadnt thought about reducing the size. Good idea.

Best value = anyone with an account with a couier you can blag a go with.
My LBS (Dave Mellor) have been superb when i've sold stuff.

What a difference reducing the size makes. Yes i know its dumb of me to have not figured that.

If i can get it down to rock's dimensions i can get it down to £5.99 + VAT

Thats my mission tonight.

TLH, presuming thats parcel2go, I believe theres a £10 surcharge for collection on their cheapest service.. usually £8.50 for me I think

I saw that. I went for the next one which was HDNL with no surcharge. Just got to get the dimensions right tonight
