Have you tried Hermes? They haven't let me down, yet. I find the Post Office offer the quickest delivery but they do charge!

They have lost several of my parcels in the past .
I ask sellers not to use them now .
Never had a problem with ups but make sure it's well wrapped !

They are all as bad or as good as each other. If you that worried then insure it with whoever you go with. Some you win, some you loose.

+1 Never had a problem with my Hermes but a parcel I was waiting for via ups was missing for3 days because no such house number! If the driver had driven 100 meters further up the road they would have found it

i always use the post office, purely as they can get round an address without a postcode, maybe not the cheapest but aim happy with them.

I use Parcels2go, but usually select the TNT option. It's not the cheapest, but they've never let me down.
