No printer Courier recommendations

Anecdotal evidence incoming


Need to send a monitor back and have no printer.
Anyone got any suggestions?
Looks like I'm fairly limited.

Was thinking of DX, parcelforce seems to be another option.

DX

I think if you take a Hermes parcel to a collection point you can print in store.

Yes our Co-Op has its own in store Hermes printer. Although I wouldnt trust Hermes with a monitor. Not many offer insurance for them either.

More serious answer:

I'm in the office today and will be going to the post office this afternoon, send me your label and I'll pop it in the post for you

 

[Surveyor]

Parcelfoce and Hermes do not offer any compensation for damage to monitors.

Thanks for the kind offer,

What time would you be leaving? If there's time I'll get a dpd label.

Will only be going tomorrow now, just found out that this post office shuts at half 3

Send me the label of you want, I'll post it to you first thing.

I used DX's 48 hour service recently for an RMA and they were spot on.

Collected from my home and they brought their own sticker/label.

Hermes I wouldn't trust with anything high value, although I've used them with cheaper/smaller parcels and some of their drop off points have a label printer.

https://www.parcel2go.com/ is a good resource for finding out which companies offer which services, including whether labels are provided etc.

I'm on dpd and soon as I type in 'monitor' it says prohibited.

Looks like it's going to be DX I guess.
Not insured for damage. But thy seems impossible to get

A little old but you could check if iPostParcels still cover monitors.

Ipostparcels cover monitors up to 40" I think? They're pretty good.

Looks like they're part of DHL so I've contacted them as there doesn't seem to be any mention of monitors being prohibited. Thanks.

EDIT: They've responded and have confirmed they allow monitors and will cover loss/damage.

Parcel2Go prohibit monitors across the board of their couriers.

Max size is not big enough (it's a long box) for ipost

Probably got no choice but parcelforce

Its not protected but at least it isn't prohibited

Did you not get my email?

 

[413x]

Did you not get my email?

I did, I sent you a reply. As its gonna have to be parcelforce I can just do it in the post office.

I've checked all the couriers and can't find one that will insure a monitor at all

Parcel2Go prohit them on all thier services
Dpd prohibit them
DX don't seem to have a portal for sending direct
Hermes don't even insure for loss

Only one I can find is parcelforce that will insure for loss

Missed your email somehow! Good luck, seems like sending a monitor is a bit of a PITA.

Its ridiculous.
Dpd deliver monitors from ocuk

But are prohibited for sending back? Makes no sense
