Question UK to Eire Courier Service

Next week I need to get some tickets from UK to Dublin in a hurry. Who can I contact to do this please - DHL or someone like that?

Thanks, David

All the big boys have an overnight to Ireland. Pforce DPD DHL etc. If you want a personal service, ring any of your local couriers, and they will jump on ryanair and in cab cab for the cost of the fares and about £50. I courier personal papers this way via train and Air with my company when the customer is in a rush.

Dublin is easy, any 1/2 decent courier company can get you a parcel there on a next day service.

OK, thanks. But can you give me an actual name as Google just throws up companies I have never heard. I can't afford the DHL costs as indicated above. Parcel Force will do a next day for about £23 which is OK but they have let me down before. Plan b) is to use Post Office and send tickets to an address in NI using next day guaranteed and get them collected. Cheers, David

David - if they can be collected from N.I then I'd do that personally as its only approx 75 mins away by car.
Avoid "An Post" at all costs!

I've seen customers posting stuff to us from just outside Dublin - it usually gets here after approx 3 days.

Cheers,
Shaun

I agree with you Shaun and will probably go with that. Won't cost too much and James, my boy, drives a 50 mpg 205 diesel so fuel cost is reasonable. David
