Default ParcelForce Alternative?

Hi all,

I need to send a heavy parcel (47kg) and ParcelForce 48 is 45 quid..

Can anybody recommend a courier who will collect the parcel for less than that?

Cheers, Nick

City Link are usually a good price, but 47kg is quite heavy.

Whats the size like?

Well it was a buyer on ebay who wanted to know how much to post my records, just found out he is in Croydon! I could deliver them by car for less than a tenner petrol!
Cheers for the suggestions and the offer Tony..
