Hi guys I have a quick question, I hop some one can help. I have a customer who is interested in a a car door however he is down in London. Whats the best and safest option to send the door? I have used city link in the past they damaged the door and voided the cover due to glass?

Has anyone sent a door before, can you please advise me

Thanks

search for car body panel courier, as most couriers do not cover damage to car body panels! Always read the couriers restricted items lists.

I run warehouse for mail order car accessories/ parts (Land Rover vehicles) and we use CityLink & Fedex - all couriers break things, but these 2 have best track record. ParcelForce are pretty good too.Avoid Yodel.
