Cheap Parcel Delivery Official Discussion

Just a follow up to my previous post.

I used gwizzcouriers to post a large (30kg+) parcel to germany from the UK.

The price was great, UPS picked it up the next day and the location of the parcel was updated regularly on their website via tracking. It arrived safe and sound within 3-4days.

I'll be using them again for sure. Again thanks for the advice, to those who helped.

yep all true, used them a few times and it was fine till recently I was hit by a damage and UPS wouldn't acknowledge the compensation cover they are selling... & another parcel being delivered by UPS to a different address..

They are using a free website hosting company www.5gbfree.com so my guess is it gets swamped from time to time and doesnt respond.

any suggestions please, for a 7kg parcel to go the USA? Cheapest quote I can find is £45. It started out as a quote for £30 (reasonable, I thought) - but, one step before payment, it decided that the address in Minnesota (which I have send parcels to before) has suddenly become "a remote address" and they wanted another £15. Bah and tish!

thanks for help

It's not just weight, you need to give dimensions.

Try transglobalexpress, not the cheapest but very very efficient and reliable.

theonlywayisup, my quote WAS from transglobal express!

dimensions are 43, 26, 31 cm

thank you!

Not all of the companies who are booked via TGE have the same definition of remote. Have you clicked into each one, as a more expensive start option may not have the surcharge, ifswim.
