http://www.parcel2go.com £12 each as long as they are under 25kg :D (might be less if destinations and collection address are residential as it can be £10 each) pay and book online :D

i've looked into accounts with couriers a few times but to be honest we dont really use them that much any more, so just passed the idea off! i reckon parcel2go might be the one to use on this occasion... will have to have a look over it.

need to test this lighting for an hour or so before it gets sent anyway!

dont forget to utilise your many free email accounts to get £1 off (if they are still doing it) so then it works out less!!  i just did 2 bookings with them, its £9 with the pound off for each parcel :D

Hello mate, parcel fore dont like taking anything over 20kg really, Nightfreight are really good for heavy stuff, or try TNT

Cheers Chris

cheers for those chris will keep them in mind. for really heavy stuff we've been ok with dfds transport before, they seem pretty reliable. always phone the person recieving stuff the day before to make sure they're in, etc.

Not used them myself but have heard great things about this guy on Ebay

Worth a go even if it is a 3 day delivery, the price looks hard to beat
