You have tried your LBS's?
They usually give them away if you ask nicely.

local halfords break them all up along with saying cant give them out as you might be selling bikes as Halfords bikes when they are not !

other smaller lbs no issues but doesnt get many road bike sized boxes

Are you sorted with this now biggs?

If not I had a bike delivered at work today.

I remembered this thread so I've kept it on one side.

If your fixed up though it's no problem, I'll flatten it and store it at work, you never know when you might need a bike box IME

Just spoken to TNT, (we have an account with them), and based on the size they have quoted me £16.92.

It measures L: 72" H: 42" W: 8".

The width could be reduced by flattening, but TBH they volumise it based on size so I doubt it would change much if at all.
