I would have thought any courier companies will pick up a board and bindings if they're in a bag!? 
I sent a full set of Mini seats down to the south coast a while back just using the post office parcel service! All I did was wrap them in plastic and they even label them up for you if you book it all online. Job done.

Google is your friend! 
(It may make more sense if you just get a quote and suggest they arrange collection/delivery so they can pick a time that's best for them - then just stick the extra cost on when you pay them) |

this is probably too late for you but...
http://www.interparcel.com/quote/
enter dimensions weight etc... gives immediate quotes from 4 companies... and they collect as well as deliver. |

Ok to cut a long story short I had to post a snowboard I sold on ebay. (was wrong size for me so sold it on)
It was delivered by DHL....... went to them.... they wouldnt accept it because it was over 150cm.
Parcel force..... 150cm limit.
The big green parcel machine same..... and that company with the yellow and green vans.
In the end I went with Business link and used my business acount to post it.
Total nightmare.
Good luck!
