Smile Transporting large items

I wonder if anyone can give us some advise please? I can remember reading posts over the years where people have asked about sending large heavy parcels across. I have an approx 30 kilos package containing a paddle board ( not inflated) and oars etc that we'd like to send across. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thank you in advance.

If it can be boxed up or packed into a large suitcase, do consider using the door to door service offered by Sendmybag. You do need to give accurate measurements and also state the weight of the package or suitcase, but this might work for you?
Whenever I have used this service (recommended by another forum member) the suitcase has been collected by a DHL courier and it has been fully trackable online during transit to my apartment in Mallorca.

Also try Parcel Monkey. Similar service to Sendmybag, they use DPD in UK and Seur once it arrives in Spain. Last week my parcel took 4 days and arrived as tidy as it had been sent.
