Thought I found the perfect courier service to go pick up a bumper I'm looking to buy but reading the 'forbidden items' list it states that they won't carry bumpers :mad:

Anyone recommend a courier that definitely carries bumpers? So far I've looked at Parcel Force, Yodel, and CityLink via parcels2go.com and they all state no bumpers!

Can't remember who I sold my MK1 pov spec bumper to and what service was used :(

Need to sort this out today/tomorrow :thumb:

DHL will be fine for robust bumpers like the one you're sending (plus they're quite cheap). Stuff that can break i'd avoid sending via them though.

They'll be picking up a bumper from someone and it'll be a front bumper. It'll obviously be well wrapped. Might call them direct then.

ANyone know the weight? Checking the Parcel force site and it doesn't state that bumpers are prohibited. But need to know weight of a SR/GTE Bumper inc. metal reinforcer.
