[Closed] Do my Hermes take your "average" bike box sized parcel?

Looking at their size restrictions I wonder whether the standard bike box from an LBS is going to be too big (max. volume is 225cm2).

Anyone used them for such stuff and got away with it? Or can anyone suggest another reasonably priced courier?

Not in my experience.
Note that what they call the "volume" calc that they use is length + 2*width + 2*height - the result of this must be less than 225cm 🙄

No, its much larger than their largest - I've struggled with frames before now also.

I think I found UKMail via a thirdparty (can't remember exactly who) was the cheapest I could find for a frame last time.

Cheers all. Having had a hunt around senditnow seems to take them and not be terribly expensive (£12 to £15). Any good/bad experiences?
