Recommend me a courier company for bike sales

[Randomnerd]

I'm selling a few bikes over the summer, and buying a couple with the proceeds. I'd like to offer courier service for sales, and use same for a couple of purchases (one may be a tandem if that makes any difference). All within England. Bike values under £1000.
Who do people use? Are there specialist firms? What's best? How much should it cost? Any pitfalls? Your advice and recommendations would be welcome.
Cheers!

@biggs682 must have sent quite a few in the post over the years. I think he made a video on how tomato them as well

Paisley Freight used to be very good.

@woodenspoons be careful , packing is an art for sure .

I have always overpacked just to be safe as anybody who ever opens a parcel and finding the goods damaged can testify .

I have used senditnow.com for years but the prices have gone through the roof recently .
