Could you not get them sent altogether to somewhere in the US and then distributed from their using USPS?

MSE should change their recommendation.

1. I have never found the MyHermes website working properly

2. Collect+ through Parcel2Go is cheaper and works fine!!

Collect+ works really well, I use it a lot for UK. But what really annoys me is that I still have to book collections for international parcels. Wanna drop em off to!!!:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

A lot of people however hate Collect+ and are much happier with Hermes, who now also have a drop-off service.

Also guys, please do book both direct, either at https://www.collectplus.co.uk or https://www.hermesworld.com in order to get the same prices with the ability to go direct to the carrier in the event of a problem. As if you book through P2G you can't go to the carrier, only the broker, the problem being P2G's CS is diabolical.

Davey Jones, you can drop off international parcels, at https://www.dhlservicepoint.co.uk , but they are expensive, so be warned!!!

You won't beat RoyalMail for those items. Just don't bother with RM International Signed For. It is incredibly expensive and does not guarantee a signature.

Not when you have to drive >20 miles to the nearest collection point.

Although frankly I don't use either...because I like my customers and value repeat business .
