Hi,
I sold some suspension on eBay and I'm not sure of the best way to post it. I guess it would be easier to split it up into 2 parcels. Either way, which company is best to use for larger and heavier goods? I've read a few posts a while ago about companies which come to your door and do a pickup however I can't find the posts any more.
Any tips would be appreciated
Cheers,
Rab

nowadays you have to go in and they have a little plastic door, with a pretend letter box hole.
you have to stand there and pretend to be the postman posting the letter to say if it will fit
i like to ad-lib my own bit of role play into it
