Guys,
A quick one. What would be the most cost effective way of getting a bike across the country. Do parcelforce or any others do a service that would be applicable?
Regards
Ben

They seem quite reasonable, depends what you mean by cheap though :?winter beast: http://i497.photobucket.com/albums/rr34 ... uff016.jpg

I've used Parcelforce a couple of times to ship a bike. It'll cost somewhere in the region of £20 with their 48 hour service. Larger Post Office branches provide Parcelforce services.0

Hi
I've used parcelforce several times and found them fine,cost me £30 inc insurance for the mountain bikes but maybe a bit less for a lighter bike.Just grab a bike box from your bike shop and remove the wheels/bars/seatpost/pedals and job done.
good luck.0 -
I've used Parcelforce 24 and 48 a few times now and it's about as good a service you'll get for the cost. There's usually 15% discount codes floating about on the internet too to make it cheaper still.
The box must be 1.5m max length, 3m max girth, but most bike boxes seem to be within this size.0 -
