Flat keys to Wimbledon by courier - recommendations please

I’d welcome recommendations please. We have to get urgently a set of keys to the estate agent who is handling the sale of our flat in Wimbledon.
Bearing in mind we are in La France Profonde in rural Lot et Garonne, anyone any suggestions please for a courier to use?
Thanks

Personally I’d probably go to the post office as think they do a 24 hour signed for service, or at least I think they used to. On top of that, there are the main courier services such as ups. Are they keys for additional locks, on top of what the agent has? If they are the same, probably more cost effective if they just cut more, unless I’m missing something.

They have no keys (they have taken over the business from a company that went bankrupt and no keys are to be found) and the tenant is being “difficult”.

Not sure I trust any one of them more than others! Think they all end up thrown in the back of the same van!

But do wrap carefully so not obvious they are keys and place in a bigger envelope than necessary (packed so doesn’t slip and slide around). Chronopost do a Mondial Envelope with 3 day service if that is fast enough?

Or DHL courrier…

…and cut yourselves some more copies first, just in case!

Remarkably I ‘phoned the pharmacy, forgetting the date. Then remembered and put phone down. Just 45 seconds later they phoned back to see what I wanted…. ! Bored pharmacist on “garde” duty.

We are all working here in Angleterre - Bank Holiday is next Monday. :slight_smile:

And local elections tomorrow, in which the Tories will get their behinds handed to them on a plate (part 1 of 2).

But I digress, as usual…

DHL all the way as the express services offered by La Poste all get handled by the omnishambles that is Royal Mail.

There will be at least one Tabac nearby that is a DHL drop off point.
