Default man with van / small delivery company from uk

i am looking for a company that will ship over a parcel from the uk, approx 1m x 1m x 1m [a cubic metre].
i live in the priego de cordoba area but am happy to collect from further away if necessary [eg Malaga, Granada].

anyone know of a 'man with van' or small delivery company that does regular trips from uk and doesn't insist on 'minimum 3 cubic m's'?

ta!

no - too expensive and they charge by weight, not volume.

Try www.interparcel.com , I use them regulary for small parcels from the U.K very competative , you may need to send 2 x 1/2 m3 boxes for the best price.

Have you tried "Loadup" web site....

www.loadup.co.uk (get a freight quote section)

You register your details, brief description of load and location, dates required etc, and anyone (small couriers/larger hauliers looking for part load) will contact you and quote their price.

We have used this several times
