Hugh-Candoit (ENG) Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 Good tip thekeyvan, perhaps we could publish a list if there are many others in this field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kobblers Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 http://www.interparcel.com/ you can get multiple quotes all on the same page on the above link by inputting the addresses, the weight and the size. dhl always seem to be the cheapest but ONLY by going through the above site, i've found if you try to book direct through dhl it always costs more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Posted October 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2008 Try your local courier you find they sub out any non urgent work, my local one uses Amtrack, any parcel under 15kg is £9.40 next day delivery. My local courier wont answer office or mobile or get back to me after leaving a message so they can stick it. My Dad has taken it to where he works and will use that companies courier account.Cost just over £60 but still cheaper than some of the quotes I had.
