Parcel collection from Poland?

Buster_Danog

I need to have a parcel collected from an address in Poland and delivered to me in the UK. Does anyone know a service that will do this at a reasonable price? I have Googled for answers although the results are not the clearest. The parcel would probably be about 3KG or so.

You need to check both polish couriers/aggregators and UK aggregators to see which is cheaper. With the US its normally much cheaper to buy from a UK aggregator like Parcel2Go or ParcelHero but from Germany its normally cheaper to engage a German company. Have never had the need to deal with a parcel from Poland so cannot say which is cheaper.

hi, I need to do exactly this too-did you get it sorted and if so could you let me know who you used. We’re trying to get something collected that we left at a hotel, but all the courier forms seem to want us to pay customs duty in it

Sorry for the late reply. I didn't go ahead with the purchase as the prices went up after black friday. UPS seemed like the best price although they told me three copies of the invoice were needed for their records. If you are having a private item collected I recommend contacting UPS customer service. It is a foreign call centre but if they don't have a definitive answer on why you should pay customs duties on your own item maybe you can escalate the call. Or contact HMRC to ask.
