Courier Agency - Send parcels to the UK

    Hi everyone!

    I have a small business and I will need to send parcels (20kg maximum) from Dublin to the UK. In the beginning I will be sending like 3 or 4 parcels per week.

    I have contacted a courier agency and they are offering me €20 ex VAT per delivery. I know it is not a bad rate, but I would need something cheaper, any ideas?

    Thanks a lot!

    Ehh, such as ?

    Sergio 7, herewith a (non exhaustive) list of parcel carriers ;

    Nightline 01-8835400
    DPD 090-64 20500
    GLS 01-8606252
    Independent Express 01-8219999
    Fastway 01-242 900
    Parceline 01-8425122

    I wouldn't rule out the likes of UPS, FEDEX, DHL, TNT. They have a surface based product that may be reasonably priced.

    Last but not least, talk to An Post An Post Ground Floor, GPO O’Connell Street, Dublin 1 Tel: 01 7057000


    Hope this helps

    Cheers,

    You can also try APC parcels as they are quite reasonably proced and very quick
