OT Courier to pick up heavy item?

Hi, I have a 60kg item located in Kent which requires to be fetched back to
my home in Shropshire. Its on castors.
I dont think a regular courier (eg parcelforce) would cope with that?
No. There is a 35kg limit.
Does it need to be palletised or what does the team think??
Frankly, its almost worth hiring a van and doing it yourself.
Guessing at around 200 miles, the opportunity cost of using your own
vehicle, discounting time, is around £80.
With hire included, maybe £150-£180.
Getting it all palettised and trucked may cost more.
TIA Tim.
