WHO TO SEND BIKE WITH

[Manitou HT]

Does anyone know a good company that is fairly cheap to send a bike?

Try parcel2go or interparcel as they will give you several prices for different couriers.

Key is always to pack the bike in a small a box as possible as the price is mainly calculated by size.

courier

i tried Direct Courier Solutions after a series of failed pick ups from Hermes and Yodel but they failed to make the first collection date and the bike arrived with broken stem

sent them pictures of damage last week and haven't heard anything since

but to be fair to them they did contract it out to TNT so breakage isn't their fault

As Chris has already said "interparcel" have used them for years with not one single issue. Cheap as chips too approx £15 to send last bike box

Paisley Freight are not the cheapest for bikes, but you can pack it in a small box and use the online booking calculator to get a cheaper price.

I have used them for loads of deliveries and they have been excellent and super fast.

I always use City Link via Parcel Monkey. Cheaper than Parcel to Go. City Links tracking service is excellent too. Use a proper bike box and go over the top on packaging, you can't be too careful!
