Has anyone got any recommendations of a company to use for shipping a set of wheels from Sussex to Cumbria?

I've always used www.paisleyfreight.com

I've sent and received a few sets of wheels over the past couple of years and never had an issue with them.

I sent 4 tyres to Camskill recently (also from Sussex) and it cost £26 with Paisley Freight.
It was straightforward and a good price.

Does that mean it would be not worthwhile taking out the extra insurance? They cover £5 per kilo, which in this case would be just over £400, but the wheels I'm sending have been sold at £700. And as long as I wrap them properly to their requirements, cardboard covering the alloys and then the whole thing wrapped in bubble wrap, with a few photos taken to show how they looked when they left me, then there should be less of a chance of avoiding paying out in a worse case scenario.
