    During the World Cup we have reduced the FREE delivery dowm to £25 so any order over £25 has free delivery around the UK Mainland (except Highlands and Islands)
    We have tried every delivery company to get normal charges across the whole of the UK but everyone wants to charge more for the Highlands, Parcel Force who you would have thought could handle it want 100% more!!!!
    If anyone has found a reasonable company for the highlands we like to know.

    Have you tried Pharao Parcels? http://www.pharosparcel.com/Home/

    For deliveries upto 30 kg they're the cheapest and quickest IMHO.

    Do give them my regards if you contact them - networking is all in the proof.

    We ship to few parcels a week for any other net work to get cheap prices. Pharao for us is cheaper than ParcelForce or any other. Plus quite handy online booking system.

    But thanks for the tip

    Delivery charges are constantly a problem for us up here in North Scotland. In my case its absolutely ridiculous because although we are about 30 miles away from the Highlands we are still classed as being in them due to an IV postcode - not fair !! Strange thing is one of the bulkiest things i get delivered to me is large sheets of foam which come from Bristol and i get delivered free. I know the charge is still there somewhere but their price is still good. I would have thought parcelforce would be your best bet but will keep an eye out for any others.

    Thanks Ray, I have lots of customers up there in the Highlands and right at the very top of Scotland. I want to give them a free service its always seemed unfair to me that they are charged so much more and quite often they cant have a next day delivery, when we can get deliveries to the end of Cornwall by the next day. http://www.carpetfittersshoponline.co.uk
