Are International Parcels By Sea Cheaper?

Thursday, June 16th, 2011

A container shipIt’s a valid question to ask. Everyone is looking to save money, or get the best deal they can so trying to find ways to get the cheapest prices for international parcel delivery and if you’re willing to sacrifice time for a cheaper courier, then why not?

On the main we don’t offer a specific service level for very slow parcel delivery by sea because we believe that our two to three days services are often incredibly competitive as they are. For instance you can send a parcel to USA for just £12.49, Australia and China from £20.49, Canada for £18.99, Hong Kong for just £20.49. There just wouldn’t be much more scope to bring the price of the delivery down further by simply shipping via sea – especially considering that the International couriers we work with all are geared towards shipping by air.

Import / Export

We do, however, offer an import / export service for those looking to send regular freight-sized shipments. This is a containerised service which offers the most expedient method of shipping your goods via road, air or sea. We also make sure that your customs clearance is looked after and the necessary insurance to give you peace of mind.

Parcel Delivery To Ukraine Just Got Easier

Wednesday, April 20th, 2011

DHL Gateway in UkraineThose who regularly use Parcel for international parcel delivery wil know that we give you absolutely fantastic rate via DHL. Currentl we’ve got our parcel delivery to Ukraine dow to £50.99for a 1-2 day DHL Air Express service.

What we try and do is try and help get your parcel to its destination as quickly as possible, but also so do our partners. In this case DHL has spent a fortune on a new logistics centre in the Ukraine which covers a staggering 20,000 square metres in Kalinovka which is near Kiev in Ukraine. This would help increase the speed at which DHL can send your parcels, not only to Ukraine, but also the other countries of Poland, Hungary and Slovakia, in the Eastern Europe.

This sort of investment in the logistics infrastructure is just another reason which validates our belief that you can’t get any better than DHL in the international parcel delivery market.

DHL International Courier Services

International Pacel DeliveryIt just proves that you won’t be “given the boot” if you use DHL.

When it came to choosing an international courier partner to fullfill the foriegn parcel delivery needs of our customers, there was really only one option. And that was DHL. Not only is it because we’re able to give you fantastic discounts on their headline rates which allows us to offer prices as low as £17.99 for delivery to China and £12.49 to the USA, and its not only because we can offer parcel delivery to over 250 countries and terrortories worldwide, but also because we don’t think there is a more reliable courier for your international orders. It’s as simple as that.

Sometimes having your parcels insured is overlooked, to many it doesn’t come to mind when you book your parcel to be delivered, and that’s understandable as courier companies such as DHL as such a good reputation. But did you know that we actually offer £20 of free insurance with your international order and give you the opportunity to upgrade to £1,00o of loss/damage cover when you book your parcel to be collected.

DHL have fantastic levels of expertise and exerience when handling international orders, but you can also help your parcel be delivered in a timely fashion by ensuring that you provide accurate details of the parcel’s dimensions and a pro-forma invoice – we’d love to have to ask for it, but it shouldn’t take more than two minutes to fill out!
