Posting to NI

Has anyone posted a full bike across lately and if so how much did it cost and who did you use.
Cheers Steve.

Parcel force - £25 I think...... Depends on the insurance you need to cover yourself for their incompetence.

Cheers B ill get on to that mate. Only sent small items over there and it's never been cheap  and also took a while. Sent bits to France and Germany and it's been quicker and cheaper.

NI is part of the UK and therefore postal costs via the Post Office are standard

[Taipan]

Parcelforce 10.99 + whatever insurance you want and that's 24hr 

but go thru P4D

NI still ok for Royal Mail, Parcel Force etc. as it's part of the UK.

Only gets a bit crazy with some couriers as they have to cross the sea instead of sending it by road/rail/pigeon and that seems to bother some of them..

Not having much joy, the cheapest quote I have had is £38 and that's with parcel force

[Bfellows]

If you go parcelforce direct through their website they are a lot more expensive than when I use them through parcel2go.  Usually £13 plus the insurance if you want to insure yourself against their incompetence........

Hi B tried them mate they are saying the parcel is to large

[That Swan Guy]

Less than a metre and half. Any frame set can be made to fit. Cut the box down.

[stevochb]

The measurements are 135cm  X  80 cm X  20 cm  and it weighs 22nd  it's just the sizero of a normal bike box👍
With all the bubble wrap it is all James in pretty tight.

That's fair enough. Sometimes it's just easier to pay the price

[stevochb]

Yeah your right mate 

[Bfellows]

Hadn't realised it was a full size bike box you were shipping.........    Sounds about right when you get past 100cm they all start to get a bit pricey.
