There is only an upper limit for weight and length as listed below. A T25 rear bumper is nowhere near 30kg in weight...


Check the individual parcel weight and dimensions are within the maximum weight and dimensions we accept by visiting our delivery speeds and country information pages. For the UK these are: weight - there is no limit to the weight of a multi-parcel consignment but individual parcels must not exceed 30kg; length and girth - the size of each parcel must not exceed 3 metres length and girth (measured around its thickest part) combined and 1.5 metres for the greatest dimension. Girth should be calculated as twice the height of theparcel plus twice the width of the Parcel measured around its thickest part.


Regards

PS If I had to guess I 'd say between 6 and 8 kg in total....

Try http://www.interparcel.com/ they broker prices from several big carriers and always come out a lot less than booking direct with the companies. Put in the weight & dimensions and it will give you several price options. I've used them a lot with no complaints so far.
:ok
