Useful Information When Sending A Parcel To The UK
When arranging UK parcel delivery, it’s imperative that you ensure the address is written on your parcels perfectly. Whilst this seems like obvious common sense, a lot of people get post codes mixed up, causing huge delays in their cheap parcel delivery to UK. For example there are several similar post codes within the UK. For example some areas in Braintree have a CM77 postcode, whilst some areas in Shalford also use a CM77 postcode. Such a small difference can result in your parcel being delivered to the wrong destination, creating huge delays in the parcel delivery service. This is especially important if your parcel delivery to UK is time-sensitive, such as in the case of a family or friend's birthday.
If you’ve arranged the cheapest parcel delivery to UK via our site, you’ll need to ensure that what you’re sending through the British borders is allowed. If you’re sending a parcel to the UK from another country, you need to check the government websites to educate yourself on prohibited and restricted goods. Prohibited goods include illegal drugs and rough diamonds, whereas restricted items such as explosives and ammunition are only allowed if you carry a special license on you.
We trust every single one of our couriers as they handle every parcel with special care. However, this doesn’t mean that accidents can’t happen, and when they do, the couriers won’t be liable as you are responsible for securely packaging your parcel. As previously discussed, always ensure you carefully package your parcel, but as well as this, notify the couriers about any fragile contents that may be within your parcel. If this is the case, simply write ‘FRAGILE’ in clear black letters across the top of your parcel, as even though the couriers handle every parcel carefully, this will allow them to store the parcel accordingly. For extra cover against damage, it’s always worth investing in insurance, so that if your parcel was to encounter breakages, you can claim some form of compensation.
