Strange, I sent a piece of vinyl (2m x 3m) back to the manufacturers using Parcel force and there was no problems at all.

hmm, odd. might be worth asking over the counter as their site says nothing over 1.5m, they do have some funky formula for the combined girthcould be a way round it i guess?

I phoned them, they came and collected it from the warehouse. It was really cheap compaired to other couriers we tried.

I'd give your local depot a phone.

Horses for courses I suppose, Ive used these guys before, very quick delivery and dont mind the size, have to say, they were one of the cheaper services around.
