Default Posting alloys? How, where, who etc?

Morning guys

I'm trying to sell some wheels I have and someone has asked about posting them, I know places like Revolution ship new rims for £20 or £30, can anyone let me know what companies can courier for this sort of amount?

Thanks
A

I think you will struggle to get that low as that is a wholesale rate. Try the two below. I ended up using the second one and paying more because I could specify pick up time. The wheels were actually couriered by DHL.

I used Paisley to transport 4 alloys with tyres recently. They arrived, but the service was slow and the couriers (they gave the job to another courier, they acted as a broker) turned up but couldn't find me so just buggered off. Finally came back a few days later. If you use them make sure you get all the details of who is carrying the alloys and expected times and even the drivers number etc.
