    Default a courier that will deliver a bumper?

    Does anyone know of (or have used) a courier that will deliver a front bumper from one state to another? Alot of couriers I have contacted said that they dont courier items that big.

    Thanks

    I used smart send online courier service the other week, and it was good . Had some bodykit peices in it and they accepted it was quite cheap, at about $55.

    lol, never knew they changed names.
    I use to know a ValleyFast driver, put it this way I refused to go in the car with him a second time, NEVER would I send anything valuable with that company. I know they all wouldnt drive like him, but this guy was a complete tool and some of the stories of stuff he broke or "borrowed" whilst on the job is unbelievable.

    Also couriers such as TNT, will NOT pick up from a house, only business's, though some times you can get them to do a cash job which works fine.

    yer, I had a sunroof send down from Sydney through VicFast...the bloke cut the roof off and wrapped up the whole lot....idiots still broke the sunroof, then told me they don't transport glass....what do the think a car sunroof is made of......that only cost me $73 to be transported. Am still in disputes with them over it. Only have steel items come through them now, and pay the extra for insurance.
