Everyone's heard the "Parcel Farce" re-name, but to be fair we've tried most courier companies over the last 30 years and we always end up back with Parcel Force.
At peak times we can be despatching up to 1000 separate orders a day. Yeah we the odd issue, but next to nothing compared to what we despatch. Parcel Force is definately amongst the better of the options.

Does anyone remember the old Watchdog programme years ago when they did up a red van in the PF style but it actually did say 'Parcel Farce' ?

Anyway, I've found them to be ok, and when I haven't beent in they've always left the parcel at my local Post Office. There are a lot more of those than regional courier depots.

Only used these people once, http://ezdelivery.parcelbooking.com/process.php

But it was a great service, all arranged very well. As I had to arrange collection aswell.

I was impressed, found them on ebay.
