Contact me to discuss your requirements before sending your racket/s.
Use one of the 'find a courier' websites to find the best price to send your racket/s to me. Links below.
Send to: 323 Tudor Drive, Kingston upon Thames, KT2 5PF.
Take the racket to your nearest 'postal store'. Or have the courier pick up from you.
I will let you know I have received the racket and do the restring as soon as possible.
After I've done the restring you send me the cost of the restring + return postage by bank transfer.
I will send your racket back to you at the address you supplied. Home or work.
You let me know you have received your racket and that you are happy with the restring.
Example: You find a courier and pay £4 to send your racket to me. The cost of the restring is £20. I charge you the same amount to return your racket as you paid to send it = £4. So you send me £24 and I return the racket. Total cost to you is £28 = £4 postage each way + £20 restring cost.
I generally find the price each way is around £4 including VAT and basic loss/damage cover. Hermes are usually the best value option with their 'Hermes ParcelShop Medium' service. You can send up to 5 or 6 rackets for the same price as 1 racket as the weight limit is 2 Kgs.
Using a local 'postal store' is usually cheaper than having the courier pick up from your home/work address.
In terms of packaging I would put the racket in its case if you have one, use some bubble wrap and place in a suitable plastic bag and secure with tape. If you have an appropriately sized cardboard box then use that as well. Badminton rackets are the most fragile so I would recommend using stronger packaging such as cardboard.
