    Just wondering if anyone can recommend a cheap courier who can deliver from Dublin city centre to Greystones.

    Needs to be a sameday delivery and would need to be a car or van as it would be a box that'd be a bit too big to go by motorbike.

    Yeah, looks like it'd be about €60 with them. I have an account with a courier who quoted €55, but I'm looking for someone cheaper!

    Hey Gekko.

    I do occasional deliveries for companies around the City Centre part time.

    I will do this for €48 ONO depending on the weight of the box.

    How heavy is the box also can you post measurments..?

    Also when do you need this delivered?

    Wells Cargo in Store St do runs twice a day from the airport out to Bray/Greystones, via the city centre. No harm to give them a call for a price. 01 8365000.

    Thanks for the responses guys - will give those numbers a call.

    Duncanb - I don't have exact measurements, but the items in the box are not heavy at all. Depending on what my customer wants, usually no more than 5 or 6kg.

    €48 still sounds a little expensive to be honest

    p.s a courior will need rough measurments.

    i.e are you talking about a box the size of a a fridge or a box the size of a computer monitor.

    The reason for this being that a courier needs to see how much space he/she will have to allocate for the package in his/her van.

    Weight is usually not enough to quote delivery of a a package on...i.e A 6kg package could be a mighty big package if its a box of 6kg of feathers wheras the 6kg box could also be a very small box if it contains coal.
