It looks the Hermes parcel dimension limit will be breached by a frame box
What other courier that does home collection?
bikedelivery.co.uk are a middle man (APC actually collected for me) who obviously specialise in bike deliveries. For 25 quid they'll take a bike box and deliver next day.
Parcel force via senditnow.com
Used quite a few times all ok. About 13quid next day
Parcel force collected from my home address this week.
I've sent a few frames over the years via Hermes. Maybe they've changed it then...
Good tip about bikedelivery.co.uk - wish I'd seen it a few days ago.
For frames, parcelforce has always been okay for me.
Received This morning , thanks Jonno 🙂

Hermes do a "large and light" service that you can book via resellers, I've sent a couple of bikes using it via Interparcel this last week.
Particularly good for lower-value items, as the basic cost is low but the insurance bumps it up.
I wouldn't opt for Hermes.
I currently have 4 large boxes awaiting Hermes Collection - they should have been collected last Wednesday & Hermes still have not shown up yet!
I appreciate that things may take a little longer at present, but they can give me no definate collection date at present.
Any issues with posting shocks on full suss frames with these?
My local Hermes guy is great - for delivery or collection
DPD just picked up a 15kg largish box with £350 insurance for under £17. Only booked last night, but was through ebay.
