I've bought a kids bike on Fb Marketplace and now stuck with the realisation that the seller doesn't have a box in which to ship it.

Anybody got any tips or recommendations for a 'We'll send a box the day before then a man to pick up said box and bike the day after' type services that could lug it from Bristol-ish way up to sunny SW Scotland?

Entirely my own stupid fault; I should have checked... (Seller's been helpful but doesn't seem in any way keen to go out of her way to blag a box from a bike shop type thing. Which is fair enough; it was listed collection only).

Thanks in advance STW Hive Mind...

Paisley Freight offer that. I've not used it, just their normal service. From £54.99 on their site.

Paisley Freight were awful for me very recently, they use APC (round here at least) who didn't show, lied, eventually came, wrecked parcel.

They were fine for me (APC as well), funnily enough being a 30 minute drive from Paisley.

Deending on the size PF48 is also viable, I sent a BMX that way IIRC but still doesn't address the box issue.
