Specialist eBay Delivery Services

Furniture and Collection-Only Items

We specialise in moving bulky eBay furniture — sofas, wardrobes, dining sets, beds and appliances. Many couriers on our platform have two-man teams available for heavy lifting. View all furniture delivery options for more information.

Motorcycles and Vehicles

Bought a bike on eBay? Our motorcycle couriers use secure loading ramps and straps for safe transit. We also handle car transport and other vehicle deliveries nationwide, including non-runners and classic vehicles.

Bulky and Heavy Goods

From treadmills to industrial machinery — if it is too big for Royal Mail, our large item delivery specialists can help. We also offer dedicated pallet delivery services for heavier consignments.

Man and Van for Larger Collections

For multiple eBay items or larger collections requiring loading assistance, a man and van service may be more suitable. Drivers assist with loading and unloading and can handle items too awkward for a single courier.

Tips for eBay Sellers: How to Offer Delivery on Collection-Only Listings

If you are selling on eBay and listing an item as collection only, offering delivery can significantly increase your potential buyer pool and final sale price. Here is how to make it work:

  • Get a quote before listing — use our platform to get an indicative delivery cost before you list. Add this to your listing description so buyers know delivery is available.
  • Measure and weigh the item accurately — incorrect dimensions lead to revised quotes. Measure at the widest points including any packaging.
  • Photograph the item thoroughly — clear photos of all sides help the courier understand what they are collecting and protect both parties in the event of any dispute.
  • Confirm access at collection — narrow doors, stairs, no parking or restricted access should be declared upfront so the courier can plan accordingly.
  • Be available for collection — you or a representative should be present to hand over the item and confirm condition at collection.

What Items Can Be Collected via eBay Courier?

Our couriers handle a wide range of eBay items including:

  • Sofas, beds, wardrobes and large furniture
  • White goods — washing machines, fridges and tumble dryers
  • Gym and fitness equipment
  • Motorcycles, mopeds, quad bikes and scooters
  • Cars and classic vehicles
  • Garden furniture, sheds and outdoor equipment
  • Industrial machinery and commercial equipment
  • Musical instruments including pianos and keyboards

Some items require specialist handling or are restricted for transport. Hazardous materials, gas cylinders and certain chemicals cannot be collected via standard courier. If you are unsure whether your item is suitable, mention it when requesting quotes and the courier will advise.

How to Package Your eBay Item for Collection

Good packaging protects your item during transit and reduces the risk of damage claims. Follow these steps before the courier arrives:

  • Wrap fragile items in bubble wrap or foam padding, paying particular attention to corners and edges.
  • Disassemble where possible — flat-packed furniture is safer and easier to transport than assembled pieces.
  • Remove loose parts — drawers, shelves and removable components should be packaged separately or secured.
  • Protect surfaces — use blankets, moving wrap or cardboard to prevent scratches on polished or painted surfaces.
  • Label clearly — attach a clear label with the delivery address and your contact number.

Is my eBay item insured during transit?

Most professional couriers on our platform carry Goods in Transit insurance. Always check the specific coverage level before booking to ensure your item is fully protected, particularly for high-value goods.

Can I track my eBay delivery?

Yes. You can communicate directly with your chosen courier via our secure messaging system for real-time updates on your delivery status. Many couriers also provide SMS or phone updates.

Can the courier collect from a private address?

Yes. Most eBay collections are from private residential addresses. Inform the courier of any access restrictions — narrow gates, no parking, stairs or restricted vehicle access — when requesting quotes so they can plan accordingly.

What if the seller is not in at collection time?

The seller or a nominated representative should be present at collection to hand over the item and confirm its condition. If the seller is unavailable, the courier may need to reschedule, which can incur additional charges. Always confirm the collection window with both the seller and the courier in advance.

Can you collect a non-running motorcycle or vehicle?

Yes. Non-running bikes and vehicles are regularly collected via specialist trailer or van. Declare the condition accurately when requesting quotes — including whether the vehicle rolls freely or requires winching — to ensure the courier arrives with the correct equipment. See our motorcycle transport page for more detail.

Can eBay items be delivered internationally?

Yes. We can arrange international delivery for eBay items via our European courier and international shipping services. Customs declarations and import duties may apply depending on the destination country.
