THE BEST COURIER
FOR HIGH-VALUE ITEMS

Sending high-value items by courier

Looking for the best courier for high value items? You may feel hesitant about sending fragile and high value items by courier, since they require that extra care and attention. However, choosing the right courier will ensure your goods are delivered safely. Secure postage from us can help.

Whilst many people are finding alternatives to the Royal Mail based on convenience, there are many insured courier services in the networks to choose from. Our guide includes all the factors you should consider when looking for the best insured courier for your high-value items.

What are Considered High-Value Items?

Valuable items can be measured in the form of sentimental or monetary value. High-value items are those that have a high monetary value or those that are irreplaceable and therefore hold sentimental value to the owner. Examples can include birth/marriage certificates, jewellery or precious stones.

It’s worth knowing there are some items that are prohibited or restricted from being sent in the courier network. Before sending your items it’s always good practice to check whether the items you are sending are prohibited or restricted from being sent.
