Parcel force - postage - do they take stamps?

veryintrigued

Hopefully a really easy question - I have a 6kg parcel over a metre long that needs to be posted.

I also have loads of postage stamps saved up before the huge price rise.

Will they take stamps (as they still seem to be a part of the Royal Mail?) or will they not?

Cheers as always

PS Ive tried to google 'Do Parcelforce accept stamps'!!

In short, no. You may be able to get the Post Office to take payment for Parcelforce in stamps but that would be down to the Post Office, I doubt it though.

"DECIMAL" stamps do not go out of date, and can be used to make up any postage amount/service that the post office deals with.


even stamps with old 1/2p amounts can be used so long as they add up to a complete penny.


I've had some awesome pick ups down the booty with stamps for postage.

When the Post Office process a Parcelforce item they do not put a postage label on it so no you cannot pay in stamps for a Parcelforce item.

You can of course use them for any Royal Mail service.
