Alter the dimensions, the smaller the floor space, the cheaper, so go 33"xapprox 12" x approx 33" (Width, length, height) have the height taller than the base!

That price sounds suspiciously like ParcelForce ... if it is be aware that unless you've told them it's over 30kg they'll stuff you with a 400% surcharge if they decide to weigh it.
