All.

Purchased a flea bay bike & need to get it delivered. Who can I go to & what might the cost be?

Cheers, TX.

Tell them to stick the stamps firmly on the frame, remove the pedals and tape them well to the chainset, turn the handlebars and all should be well.

Apart from the sticking the stamps on the frame, the rest is sound advise.
Bit of packing tape and a great wedge of cardboard and you're away.

Sorry guys, I meant who can deliver it for me (tried Royal Mail & found sweet fanny adams) & what might it cost ...

I've sent bikes before by Parcelforce, think it was about £15, plus a bit for insurance if the values over £100. If you get a box from your local Halfrauds you won't have to worry too much about any other packaging.

Any of the major couriors will pick up and deliver bikes, DHL Amtrack etc etc, just ask your local bike shop for a old box (they are usually more than willing to hand them out as if saves them getting rid of them) take the pedals off, loosen the handlebars from the stem push them under the top tube and bobs your uncle. Usually costs £25-£30.
