Couriers to South Africa

Topaz_Space

Greetings.

I have a problem regarding sending a newspaper by air from UK to South Africa.

Back in the day, I would simply enclose the newspaper inside a suitable cardboard tube and send it via Royal Mail.   On arrival in South Africa, it would clear customs etc and then be sent to the addressee by way of South African Post Office. (SAPO)

However, today, SAPO has just about collapsed.   To start with, there is a backlog of millions of items awaiting sorting and clearance at Johannesburg Mail Centre.   Secondly, the Post Office in the SA town that I want to send to has closed its doors, so therefore no way of delivering anything to street addresses.

I am trying to find a relatively simple (no proforma invoices etc) and cost effective method of posting non urgent items of no commercial value and a buying price of say £1, such as newspapers, by air, for delivery to a South African street address.   This street address could perhaps be to a SA branch of PostNet

Are you able to advise me of which UK Airfreight Courier would be able to help me.

All my best wishes.
