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?
Does it need to be palletised or what does the team think??
It's more a question of what the couriers think, isn't it
why not ask the people who know ?
My feeling is that it will need to be on a pallet
... not cheap
I don't think the H&S regs allow one man to lift 60 kgs, which kind of
rules out couriers I would have thought.
35kg is the limit.
The hubs that most couriers use..they all sub to each other - will only
do that.
More than 35kg means a door to door truck with a lifting mechanism. =
MUCH more expensive.
