An Alternative to Parcel Force


If you have a branch of the Staples stationery store near you
then you can take advantage of their Parcel delivery Service.
In conjunction with DHL they are offering a next day delivery
for just £8.

Parcels can be up to a maximum weight of 31.5kg with a
maximum of 4 cubic feet per item and a maximum length
of 4 feet. Parcels have to be delivered to your local Staples by
12p.m . For extra charges delivery can be guaranteed before
10.00 am or 12pm.

Parcels sent using this service carry an insurance liability of up
to £100. Additional insurance can also be purchased. Next time
I have a big parcel to ship I think I will give it a try. If you have
Any experience of this service let me know what you think
