I'm looking for a courier that can handle a reasonably large parcel, it's not stupidly big.

I've looked at Parcel2Go and Interparcel, who both want around £40, then there's Parcel Monkey who want £13!! Seems too good to be true? Among several good reviews I read, they have one or two iffy ones.

Any others I can try?

 

I do most of my work courier wise for city link, and Ive noticed just lately we deliver quite a bit of Parcel Monkey stuff, so im guessing they are just subbing it out ?

 

Paisley Freight who advertise on ebay are good!

 

Paisley Freight are ok if everything works first time. If you ever need to phone and ask for information (i.e. "it's 5 to 5 and i'm going home soon, where is your guy?" you will no doubt speak to the owner of the company who is arrogant and obnoxious.
They will also ask you to complete the deal outside of ebay so that when they screw you around you can not leave neg feedback to warn others.
I would avoid them if possible...

C&B, i would recommend parcelmonkey! I sent a bumper through them and there were no problems at all. Quite cheap too. I think it was FedEx that actually came to pick the bumper up.

 

I just don't get how Parcel Monkey are SO much cheaper than everybody else! I've just put the dimensions into that P4D one and they are coming out at circa £80!!

 

mostly used citylink

 

UPS?

 

It needs to be someone that I can use as a private individual, without setting up an account.

 

Doh! They're usually great, best i've found with smaller parcels. Maybe they just dont like you

 

Ive used p4d many times. I just lie about diamensions done it loads well over 100 times nothings been said.

The only people who will actually get it there on time and in one piece is Postman Pats Special Delivery Service................................

 

Everywhere else was £40 odd quid for sending my bumper, parcelmonkey was only £23 i think. They were great, no problems at all! they send you the shipping notes through email, you print them off, stick one to the package and give one to the driver, job done!

 

You are the weakest link, Spamming Wanker, goodbye.

Edit - Then it was gone! LOL.
