Advice for packing your consignment is a tricky area. Only you will know if the packaging is sufficient for the goods you are sending. Basically if you have packaged the item in its box for sending and it rattles around when you shake the box it is not good enough. The box must be able to withstand a small fall. The reason for this is that the carrier may drop the box at any stage. However please rest assured that the greatest of care is taken with all of your packages.

All consignments sent through our carriers are fully track able online.  We can help you do this by offering you a page which has links to all of the relevant agents websites.  Simply click on the tracking for each consignment to track your parcel.

As in al carriers of packages, we need to issue some guidelines on what we can and cannot carry through our networks. We have done this through a prohibited items page. Here you will find all the help and advice you need to make the sending process as quick and easy as possible. We would always advise reading this page before sending your goods as it may effect your rights to claim. Some of our services offer extra insurance, and some do not. To find out this information, please see our services page.

Some couriers offer a box price (usually between 20-30 kilos), other services use volumetric weight to calculate the cost of shipping.  This involves the dimensions of the box or the overall weight whichever is the greatest.
