I use parcel2go Steve.  Bang your dimensions and weight in the fields....pick youre service out of a number of couriers and then add the insurance.  Im pretty sure they give you a standard £20 to start with and then any additional insurance is charged at a percentage of the value?

Oh and cheers for the Pretzels aswell dude  :daumenhoch: ...got them a week or so ago and forgot to say cheers :)

my hermes through parcel2go refused to collect a frame with a back wheel for me this week because it was too big. requoted me 65 quid for pallet shipping ! f'in jokers! + my hermes is a 2nd rate operation. you never know who might turn up. might be some fooker in a car !
 ipost parcels-none of that mess!

What about UPS?  Ive sent though them a few times.....All the drivers ive met/dealt with seem like good people :)

Probably not the cheapest in comparison to what is available in the market but the service is good, and will insure just about anything :)

interparcel won`t ship bikes or frames anymore through them ,because when you claim if damaged it`s through interparcel not ups or dhl who come out  ,that why the question was ask ,also if go direct to courier then price is a hell of a lot ie 40 to 50 pounds
