Amazing service. Booked a collection for a set of wheels and tyres just before 12 yesterday and they arrived at 11.30 today. From Buckinghamshire to Yorkshire. :thumbsup:

I've used them before without any problems? What happened to one of your wheels? Cracked? Buckled? :cry:

must have used them 20 plus times now, great service.

They rely on third party couriers, usualy TNT for me

Not sure with mine! But I've had wheels delivered with tyres no problems and this probably helps give some added protection (cardboard only protects to a certain extent).

Two consignments (bought and sold) with no problems but good packaging is essential, I think you have to assume most items with couriers get abused.

Bad things will always happen but from my own experience with couriers Paisley Freight is the only one i would ever use , probably over 150-180 sets from me & never had a issue with them :?

Not serious integral damage to that extent. It looks like one of them was placed face down on the ground and there was something underneath. Whatever it was has cut through the cardboard covering the face and right through the top layer of a lovely set of completely refurbed MV2s :(

Just bad luck I guess

I've used them maybe 15+ times in 8 years and have never had any trouble. Only one occasion really but TNT were to blame.

I'd thoroughly recommend PF 😃

I used them once to courier Swiftly's 224s from Scotland to Preston. They suffered a delay of 24 hours because of transport breakdown. Guess that could happen to any delivery, just back luck. Alloys were delivered the following day in perfect condition.
