Been looking at bicycles on eBay, and most are collection only. Couriers that deal with bikes want them to be boxed up, are there any companies that collect bikes loose and/or stick them in a box for you?

They're one of the couriers I found, but 'Your bike must be boxed' Sad

I remember this being a problem when I was looking at bikes on the bay of E before I had a car. It seems like a weird one in the age of Uber and co.

It has me wondering if there's any sort of generic 'do a job for me' site that you could use to get someone to just drive it down. Or something like 'bla bla car', rideshare with this bike that you pick up for me first.
