Heavy parcel.....Delivery ideas for cheap?
« on: 10 March 2013, 11:45 »
I have a parcel that weighs 25kg. I Googled 'Royal Mail' and the cheapest I can find is £35.60 to deliver......Really was not expecting this as I stupidly put P&P at £18.00 on my Ebay ad' as thought that would cover the cost.

Any ideas or links to a cheaper delivery option?

i've used myhermes a couple of times recently and it's been a really good service, they come to you and pick up the consignment.

EDIT:


just checked their website and its up to 15kg. but maybe if you speak to them they can help you out somehow.
