Default best courier to deliver a wheel abroad?

As above!


I'm selling a wheel to someone in Germany, can anyone recommend a good safe cheap service to use?

I have not sent anything abroad before so reliability is paramount



many thanks jim

Id use UPS for this. If you have a mailboxes franchise locally give them a call and they can pack it for you as well. We use UPS for jobs that need to be sent abroad. Next in line would be DHL.

I wouldn't use DHL after they buckled one of my BBS wheels on it's way over from Italy!

From experience, I would recommend DPD. UPS i'm sure would be good too.

Where in Germany, when does it need to be there and can you get it to me on route to Dover Friday??

Maybe the best option?
