Another company not yet mentioned in this discussion is UPS. Now again, despite their negative publicity, I am yet to have a problem with 'Oops'. We have had a hand full of parcels delivered to our house by these guys and the deliveries have always been on time and arrived in good condition. The drivers were also quite friendly.
I've generally found UPS good. The one exception was that they have a large network of agents, which are supposed to accept parcels where you've printed a label online, and are actually reluctant to do so because UPS don't pay them to do that. They need to do something about that - either remove the claim that you can drop the parcels off (and in that case I'd have booked a courier collection) or pay them for handling so they do it properly.
