What are the stages of a parcel delivery? When ordering one of our parcel delivery services you will first need to calculate the size and weight of your package. Please ensure this is accurate to avoid any unnecessary delays or surcharges being added to the order.Protect your parcelIt is crucial to protect the items you are sending by packing them well. Wrap your items in bubble-wrap and use a strong box, make sure that the item is cushioned on all sides and perhaps use double walls on each side to prevent the item from touching the outer panels of the box where it could be damaged by tough handling. Seal the box with strong tape and once you have attached the label, take a photograph of it as proof that the packing was done correctly.
Our sizes and weights are estimates only to try to help with your order, so you can compare the weight of your parcel with something from home.
If your item feels heavier than the average, please make sure you reflect this in your booking.
