How to Send a Parcel to the United Kingdom?

Wondering how to send a package to United Kingdom? Ecoparcel makes it easier than ever. The days of browsing several courier sites, checking prices and delivery times are over. We have gathered all the confusing information, put it in order, and made it so that you can send a package to United Kingdom in a matter of minutes.

All you need to do is enter the country you are sending it from, the destination country, and the package dimensions and weight. And the best part? You don’t go to an office or store to mail your package. Ecoparcel does all the hard work for you. A courier comes to your house at a predetermined time and picks it up free of charge. Simple, right? Now, on to the next step: the price.

The rates listed are clear and without any hidden costs. For added convenience, the estimated delivery times are also shown to help make your decision-making process easier. For example, you need to get an urgent document to United Kingdom. Pick the quickest option and have it arrive in as little as 1-2 business days.

Of course, there are a few things to keep in mind. Voluminous packages can cost more even if the weight is just a few kilograms. That is because a bigger Parcel takes up more room when transporting. Try to reduce the size by using a small box if possible. Doing so not only lowers the transport cost but is also environmentally friendly.

How to Properly Pack a Parcel?

Chances are you have sent a package before. But did you know there is a right and a wrong way to pack? Yes, this may come as news to some, but understanding how to pack is very important. Here is an insight on how to pack the most common objects sent by courier:

  • Clothing and other non-fragile items
  • Clothes, shoes, and other non-fragile items get sent constantly via courier. Knowing how to fold clothes is essential to profit from every square cm of your shipping box. The roll-up method works best. Take each piece of clothing and fold it once (if it is a shirt, tuck the arms in), then roll them up lengthwise. You won't believe how much more room it frees up.

  • Electronics
  • Unlike clothing, electronics can’t be folded up into a nice package. Laptops, tablets, and phones are fragile and need special care to ensure safe arrival to their destination. Having the original packaging of the item in question helps. If not, wrapping each item in bubble wrap is the next best option. Any additional space in the box should be filled with packing peanuts to help protect the item during transit. Pro Tip: Ecoparcel recommends using biodegradable packing peanuts as they are environmentally friendly.

  • Documents
  • In today’s day and age, most documents are digital. However, occasionally, there is still a need to send a physical copy of a contract or document internationally. To ensure they arrive safely, make sure you put them in a folder first and ask the courier picking up the documents to put a “do not bend” label on it.

Knowing how to pack saves you time, money, and stress. Whether it’s your first time sending a package or a seasoned pro, these tips above will surely help.

How Much Does It Cost to Send a Parcel to the United Kingdom?

Cost is one of the biggest deciding factors when sending a parcel. So, how much does it cost to send a parcel to United Kingdom? That depends on multiple factors, including distance, size, weight, and urgency. The good news is that Ecoparcel allows you to compare prices from numerous top-rated international couriers all in one place.

For example, a parcel from Austria to Germany will cost significantly less than one from Austria to Sweden. Size and weight are also taken into the equation when calculating the price for sending a parcel to United Kingdom.

Lastly, urgency plays a big role in the overall cost. Time-sensitive parcels are much more expensive than regular delivery. But the good news is that you can help minimize the cost. Ecoparcel’s simple and transparent platform allows you to see exactly what it will cost for your parcel to get from A to B.

Ecoparcel offers several incentives and options to keep prices as low as possible. Free insurance for items valued up to €100 is one of them. The long-standing relationship between the couriers and Ecoparcel is another benefit that helps bring down the total cost.

If you are a new customer, the incentives are even better. Our platform offers up to 50% discount for new users. The easiest way to determine how much it costs to send a parcel to United Kingdom is to enter the destination and dimensions at the top of the page and click the “get a quote” button. It’s as simple as that.

How to Claim Compensation for a Damaged or Lost Parcel?

Although the delivery rate for parcels sent through Ecoparcel is extremely high, there is always the chance of a package getting lost or damaged in transit. We work with many couriers and do our best to make each parcel safe to its destination.

In the unfortunate event of a package being damaged in transit, we recommend filing a damage report as soon as possible. It can be done with the courier if you see visible damage when receiving the parcel. This method requires you and the courier to fill out a separate form at the time of delivery. From there, the shipping courier handles the rest of the process and files a claim for you.

If the damaged parcel is delivered while you are not home, contacting the customer service department of the courier is your best bet. They can file a claim and walk you through all the steps necessary for a refund. Ecoparcel can also file a report on your behalf and take care of all the communication for you.

Sadly, sometimes parcels go missing. If your parcel is lost, contact Ecoparcel’s customer service department. We can guide you through the steps of getting a refund for you.

If you want to claim compensation for a lost or damaged parcel, the process should be started immediately. It can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks to receive your money back.
