Parcel collection thread

THE PARCEL COLLECTION THREAD.

there are lots of cheap alternative parcel posting services available for sending items across the uk but sometimes private online sellers are tricky to deal with and dont like using them or you get "item must be collected no postage" or £10 postage for a small item.

other services i have used

collectplus - need a printer and faith in the system
hermes - need a printer

and so a thread to say what you have that needs collecting and where. if a hand can be lended this thread has served its purpose. i started this because i have a parcel mentioned below.

cheers

What on earth could you want that's in Milton Keynes?? :-s

Good thread idea btw...

That's a cunning way of bumping, Gerald. :)

I'd also be interested in what companies people suggest from previous experience.
Last week i sold a bike and the buyer arranged a collection by http://www.parcelmonkey.co.uk/ and he seemed to get it sharpish.

What on earth could you want that's in Milton Keynes??

is there anybody in wardle , rochdale OL12 9ST that could collect a computer printer for me and then allow me to arrange courier collection from them please. the seller wont post.

Shop to Shop via UPS : absolutely bullet proof delivery, and there's usually a partner shop within 0.5 mile of most postcodes in towns/cities. No more waiting in for non existent couriers, and you can pick up/drop off till 10pm at night!

yeah but he doesnt want to get involved with posting it
