    weight is 28 ish kgs
    too big for any couriers that I know.

    I've delivered and picked up bigger boxes than that. Try UPS.

    You could rent a van for a lot less than that and do it yourself.

    Where is it to be delivered?

    Within Ireland and you shouldn't have too much problem as limit is 30kg for most and no one side over 90cm

    If for uk or Europe you might get dpd to take it.

    BTW, did you ask ups for road service? Huge difference between "courier/express" service and parcel delivery service.

    Dpd €16.40 within Ireland
