Posting an oversized item (yodel simple delivery) - will accept?

Hello,

I am planning to list, sell and post an item that is slightly longer around 70 cm. I have a non original box around 46x46x76 cm height, the item would fit inside the box and the weight (prob 10kg) should definitely be less than Yodel oversized eBay simple delivery above 20kg limit and over the Yodel oversized limit which meet the criteria.

Would the courier accept such parcel?

type of label: yodel oversized

eBay simple delivery (buyers pay)

Is it as simple as pack it up, paste label and drop it off at the Yodel drop of point?

thanks, I value your opinion.

Yodel isn't available with Simple Delivery. It would be too big anyway (Maximum size for Yodel is 60×50×50cm and 10kg). If it is being sent with Simple Delivery then it would need to be DHL eCommerce UK which is collection only. Alternatively, you may be given the option for custom postage.
