courier recommendations

As you can tell from my feedback I do quite a bit of to-ing and fro-ing and always use Interparcel - the service using UPS. I'm on first name terms with the local guy :) The only time I ever had a problem it was because I didn't pack the bass well enough and a sticky-out control knob had the shaft bent slightly - that was my fault not theirs. Use lots of packaging!

I agree, UPS via interparcel have always been good for me.

Hermes are to be avoided, their insurance doesn't cover musical instruments, they have failed to pick-up on two occasions, take ages to deliver and have lost stuff in the past.

Another Interparcel/UPS user here. Pack it well, if it's not in a case then double-box it.

Any courier service is only as good as its weakest link. My local driver is great but the pick-up point nearest to me is terrible. I've also had to make my first claim for a damaged item sent by Interparcel. It wasn't a bass but the claims procedure highlighted the necessity of good packing - they wanted to see photos of both the external box and all the internal padding packaging to ensure that the content had been protect as much as possible before settling.
