You might find that DHL would be willing to handle this. The
weight/size spec. appears to be within their offerings.


Waves Yep, DHL will take it, sit down while you ask the price though.

Does it need to be palletised or what does the team think??

At that weight I would recommend putting it on a pallet, that takes it
out of the normal (mis)handling system and ensures more careful
treatment. (It's difficult to throw a box with a forklift)

That would be the best way, unless it's small enough to be put into a
crate that you could make.

Yes again, remember that you will be charged by the volume according to
the formula: (all in millimetres)

(length x breadth x height) divided by 6,000 gives the 'volumetric
weight'. (In Kg) If this is less than the physical weight then you won't
be charged any extra for putting it in a protective crate.

I would take off the castors as well.

If you don't, DHL probably will, traumatically.
