Once you have entered the details of your shipment, we will show you all of our international services which are available based on the information given.

The service chosen will affect the price to send the parcel. The size and weight also is a factor; we use volumetric weight to determine the final price, calculated as follows; length x width x height (in centimetres) divided by 5000.

If the volumetric weight exceeds the actual weight of your parcel, the cost will be the volumetric weight price. We’ll work it all out for you, don’t worry – just enter the correct weight and dimensions of your parcel when getting your quote or making your booking.

We deliver to UK, Europe and Internationally - We deliver all over Britain, from Portsmouth to Plymouth, Porthmadog to Portpatrick and Peterhead to Penrith.

For parcel delivery to Europe, our most popular destinations include Germany, France, Spain, Netherlands, Portugal and Greece.

Internationally, we deliver parcels to over 160 countries worldwide, including Australia, USA, New Zealand, China, Pakistan, Canada and India to name a few. See our full list of international delivery destinations.

 
 

Parcel delivery times

 

For most mainland UK deliveries, we will deliver next day* – with delivery times for British Isles, The Highlands, Ireland, Northern Ireland and parts of Scotland more likely to be 1-3 days*.

For international deliveries, the time varies from country to country but as a guide, we deliver to many European countries in as little as 2-3 days* and some rest of the world locations in just 2-4 days*. See our full list of international delivery destinations and choose the particular country for more detail on international delivery times.

 
 

Size and weight limits for parcel delivery

 

We can collect and deliver parcels as small as 1cm and as large as 70cm with a weight of up to 25kg. For more information, see our pages on parcels by size: small parcel, large parcel and extra large parcel.

 

The largest parcel size you can send through our network is 120cm (l) x 60cm (w) x 60cm (d) with a maximum weight of 25kg. If you are sending a large or heavy parcel, there’s no need to struggle taking it to the post office – we will collect from your home, business or work address. Before sending, we recommend reading our guide on large and heavy parcels for more information on the best way to send bigger items.

 
 

Items that can't be delivered by post

 

We will carry most items through our network, however, it’s important to note there are some restricted and prohibited goods which means there are definitely some items you can’t send through the mail.

Apart from our own lists, there are also different regulations for each country, which is important to remember when sending internationally – so be sure to take a look at our UK prohibited items and restricted goods as well as the international prohibited and restricted lists and each individual country page for details about what can’t be delivered by mail.

So many ways to save on delivery costs

 

Not only do we offer some of the cheapest parcel delivery prices to be found online, we also provide some exciting ways to help you keep a hold of those pounds and pennies. For example, we offer multi parcel discounts on some of our UK services.

If collection isn’t important to you but saving money is, you can drop off at one of our 50+ depots across the country – prices for depot drop off start from just £2.79 . Check the local depot page for your nearest drop off point. Alternatively, if you don’t live near to a depot then you can drop off at one of our 3,500 ServicePoints from £4.90 .

And if that isn’t enough to keep your pocket happy, you can save every time you add funds to your pre-pay account. When you pay money in, we’ll give you 3% of the total back into your account which you can use to send more parcels in the future. If you’re a regular shipper, our top-up account speeds up the parcel booking and ordering process as the credit is already there waiting when you’re ready to send.

 
 

How to send a parcel for delivery

 

Firstly, make sure your parcel is packaged securely to ensure it reaches the destination safely in the condition you want. Our packaging and posting support contains some top tips on how to protect your parcel. When booking your delivery, you’ll need to give the weight and size of your parcel so it’s a good idea to measure your parcel at this stage.

It’s so easy to send a parcel from anywhere in the UK with us – our door to door delivery service can be all be booked from the comfort of your own home, by filling in your details online using our super-simple booking form.

Arrange collection of your parcel from your home or work address on a day to suit you – you’ll also be given a collection timeslot so you won’t have to wait in all day. If you can’t be in on the day the parcel has to be sent, we can pick it up from a designated safe place or neighbour (you can tell us where the safe place is when you book) and our driver will collect during the standard collection time window.

Alternatively, use our drop off services and save money in the process. You can drop off at one of our 3,500 DHL eCommerce UK ServicePoints from £4.90  or at a depot from £2.79  if that suits you better.

When booking your parcel, you can specify the cover amount to suit the goods you’re sending – as standard, we provide cover on UK deliveries to £25 and international deliveries to £50, but you can increase the level of cover as required.

International parcel deliveries usually require additional paperwork for customs clearance but during the process of booking in your parcel, we will automatically provide you with any forms that need your attention, so don’t worry.

And that’s it! In next to no time, your recipient will have their parcel in hand and you’ll be glad you used one of the UK's best and most reliable parcel delivery services.

If you should need any support with your parcel delivery, our Customer Service team are on hand to help with any of your queries.
