Christmas is a special time of year and although it’s likely to be a little different this year, it’s never been more important to reach out to the people you love no matter where they are in the world.
If you’re planning to post gifts to family and friends, it’s time to get organised. Christmas will be upon us before you can say ‘panettone’ so it’s essential to plan ahead.
Luckily, Parcel Monkey is here to help. Not only will we help you find discounted rates with reputable couriers like UPS and SDA, but we’ve also put together the Christmas last posting deadlines for national and overseas deliveries so you can make sure your gifts arrive on time.
If you’re sending gifts in Italy, try not to leave it until the last minute. For peace of mind, send your gifts a couple of weeks before Christmas. There’s plenty to do in the run-up to Christmas, so get your Christmas posting done early and give yourself more time to relax with family and friends.
However, if things don’t go to plan (they often don’t at Christmas), Parcel Monkey can still help you out. Using our shipping calculator, you can book delivery services in Italy at a discounted rate.
These reliable courier services will ensure your parcels reach their destination in time for Christmas:
| Service | Post by* |
|---|---|
| UPS Standard | Tuesday 22nd December |
| SDA | Tuesday 22nd December |
*Your parcel must be with the courier by this date.
Top Tip: Your parcel must be with the courier by the specified date so if you’d like your parcel collected, please book the day before you would like the collection. E.g. Book by Monday 21st for a collection on the 22nd. If you would like to drop off a parcel please check the collection times for your chosen drop off point.
If you’re sending gifts to family and friends in Europe, Parcel Monkey can help you send a gift to almost any European destination at a discounted price. However, you will need to allow more time for international deliveries at Christmas, especially if you want to avoid paying extra for an express service.
Our most popular courier service to Europe is UPS Standard. The last posting date for UPS Standard to Europe is Wednesday 16th December. That means your parcel must be with UPS by this date. If you are booking a parcel collection from your home or work, please book by Tuesday 15th December for a collection the next day.
