A few options, postage might be crippling though unless you want a load.

Dan,

I think you are reading our site wrong.

The shipping weight is 28kg not £28 !!

For upto 30kg shipping by parcelforce is £7.92 inc vat (for non highlands, islands and europe, which are obviously more)

Thanks

I'm seeing £14.40 now as the lowest postage option with 2 x 10kg rockies, and a total weight of 28kg - screen shot attached.

You need to use lighter packaging material.

Hi Dan,

Not a case of lighter packaging material,

You must have used a Highlands address - parcelforce charge double for highlands hence the £14.40

I challenge anyone to ship a 30 Kg parcel within the UK for less than our parcelforce cost of £7.92 inc Vat
