Not sure if this is the right section for this.

Basically I'm looking at buying a rear subframe on eBay second hand from a gent. However I need to arrange the courier for postage. Any idea on what company to use ?? Obviously it's big and heavy. It will be on a pallet if that makes a difference. I'm hoping someone on here has had to send one out before.

Thanks in advance, Andy.

I just paid for an engine on a pallet at the weekend; from Devon to Essex £50.40

Wise Old Elf arrange the pallet to be collected from me. The chap who came in the truck was very friendly and seemed professional, so at this stage I would recommend.

Also I have a new rear subframe for sale if your purchase falls through on eBay ;)

Bargain, You'd spend more than that in fuel driving from Essex to Devon and back

I would. I thought £50 was good value. The wife was thinking about a small holiday but its not really the weather for Devon.

You will need the measurements and weight then go from there. You will need these to get your quotes.
