Default Courior to send G.box/Engine

I need to send a G.box and Engine (to seperate places) anyone any idea who's best to use, I'd imagine they'd need to go on a pallet, who does this and how much?? i'm in Glasgow, Scotland.

Dont know about Scotland but I've sent many gearbox's bubble wrapped for about £8, and an engine (block, pistons, rods, crank, no ancillaries) bubble wrapped in a cardboard box for about £12 using www.interparcel.com always been spot on for me!

Interparcel wanted a silly amount for a 35kg G.box, on a pallet they wanted £80 which the buyer is happy to pay.
