Posting a moses basket??

[Mrs_Glennie]

Morning,

When baby G was born some very kind friends lent us their moses basket which was soon grown out of and as we live in a teeny flat I sent it off to my mum's for storage. I had no idea that with a 6 month old baby my friends would suddenly announce that they needed it back for number 2!!!

My friends now live in sussex and my mum in the deepest depths of cornwall so collecting it by car doesn't seen possible, could my mum post it to them? How to package such a thing and would the post office kick up a fuss at something so big??

Not sure what to do other than to order them a brand new one...

A courier company would sort it, not sure of cost though??

Can't help as such but just to say that both my friend and I bought moses baskets on e-bay and they came in the post all wrapped in plastic so certainly seems that Royal Mail can handle it. I'm sure if you pop into the post office and ask them they would be able to advice on how to do it and the cost.

Thanks both, my mum managed to find a box that an old hoover came in, which fits perfectly!
