Wayne Johns

Couldn't have gone smoother.

Service was impeccable. Driver turned up to collect at correct time, despite potentially being a difficult place to find within the hospital. Driver was very smart and polite. Tracking was updated regularly and delivery on date as expected.

Large & heavy wheel courier delivery

Not all UK wheel couriers offer a complete service for large and heavy parcel deliveries. Parcelhero specializes in bulkier deliveries and with a range of partner carriers to select from, can navigate customers to the best service for their individual needs.

Whether you are sending alloy wheels to the USA, or a batch of rims to China, large and heavy items require special handling so standardly should be booked 24 hours in advance of the desired collection slot. If the item is over 30kg our partner carrier will normally expect help loading it onto the vehicle or for you to provide equipment to assist with loading. Please note: alloy wheels are standardly measured in inches while our booking tool requires measurements in centimetres.

For alloy wheel or automotive deliveries exceeding the restrictions outlined below, please contact our customer service team.

Maximum length: 270cm
Maximum weight: 1000kg: items over 50kg must be booked 24 hours in advance
Maximum length of second longest side: 150cm
Items totalling in excess of 70g will require a pallet service

Steering your alloys through international customs

When shipping alloy wheels overseas, you will need the correct customs documents to avoid any delay. Parcelhero will help with this and create all the docs you will need as part of the booking process.

It is important to understand that Customs may apply additional duty or tax to your shipment when you send alloys overseas. These charges will be applied to the recipient of the parcel. We can’t include these charges in your Parcelhero pricing as they are applied at point of entry to the destination country. To ensure there are no delays at customs, please check your items are not prohibited or restricted.

Parcelhero labelling & packaging

If you are sending a set of alloy wheels to the UK, EU or international destination, you will want to avoid any damage in transit, from superficial scratches through to denting or discolouration. Alloy wheels can be highly-priced so Parcelhero recommends spending a bit of time making sure the packaging is right. International parcels go through more handling stages than a UK delivery so it’s important your wheels are robustly packaged in accordance with our labelling and packaging criteria.

We advise:

1. Packing your wheel:	2. Your labels:	3. Securing your package:
Wrap each alloy wheel in bubble wrap and pack any remaining internal space with additional packing - parcel packing chips or crunched up paper. Ensure your items are suspended within the box and are not adjacent to the box walls. If sending multiple items in the same box, make sure each item is insulated from each other.	Ensure labels are clearly and securely fixed to the outer packaging, with a ‘spare’ set of labels placed inside.	Use dedicated packing tape and ensure there is no loose exterior tape. Pay particular attention to the box seams. If using a second-hand box, make sure the box joins are reinforced.

Please note that car parts are notoriously problematic to ship due to their size and weight, therefore they are listed on our non-compensation list. We are still able to offer cover, but you need to send us images of the packaging being used so we can pre-approve your packaging prior to shipping. Once this is done your shipment will be covered for loss and damage.
