We have a few companies deliver bikes to our store, few are better than TNT for care of packages. I've never had one that I have had to refuse.
Tuffnells on the other hand seem to employ drivers with physical injuries which means they launch the boxes off the back of the van onto the road. 1-10 turns up with boxes damaged and often damage to the contents.
I saw the driver slide the box out of the truck the other day, Bike proceeds to fall out onto it's end in the street then flop on it's side. Driver claimed it was an accident and I was being fussy. :roll:0 -

I checked this earlier, used measurements of 130 x 18 x 80. Parcelforce 48hr wasnt a bad price, google 15% discount code you can use also.
Watch these 3rd party courier booking companies as they will squirm to get out of paying claims if something goes wrong.Ibis Mojo SL-r0 -
