If you have a local bike shop or a Halfords near you, ask them if they have got an old bike box you can have, they wont mind getting rid of it.

Take the wheels, pedals and saddle of, and the handlebars (or loosen and twist them inline), tape the wheel dropouts with cardboard/polystyrene for packing as they can get damaged easily, cover the seat stem and crank arms in cardboard to prevent damage or them cutting through the box.

A good company for couriering bikes is:

Cheap parcel delivery from Senditnow

A lot of people in the biking game use them when selling via eBay or private sales etc, they are very cheap and offer a good service.
