Sending an Alloy Wheel By Post

[Reeco]

Hi All, Have any of you sent 1 alloy wheel by post, if so which company did you use, also does anyone know the actual weight of a 16 inch alloy wheel, as I have to send one shortly but I am also looking to possibly buy one of Paul A. ATB. Reeco

Hi Mate, TYVM for that, I have just belled parcel force and they have quoted me £ 15.79, that's a two day delivery signed for and insurance up to £ 150.00. Anyone have any other couriers I could try ringing. ATB. Reeco
PS just to let members know the rough weight of a 16 inch alloy wheel is about 10 KG without the tyre.

Hi All, The cheapest place I found was a company called Celtic Couriers, they are based in Llanelli, West Wales, and they have quote between £ 12 - 14 and insurance is upto £ 100. They do have sister companies all over the UK. No more help needed TYVM, as I am going with Celtic Couriers.

I got a wheel shipped up from Red Oktobers in cornwall to me here in wales for about £9. I think it was Interparcel.com And I put the weight down to about 15 kilos.

[Red Oktober]

Nope ....Cornwall is full of holes ........Devon isn't
