Drop Off at the Post Office | Save on shipping to Europe via Parcelforce.
You can save money on the cost of sending parcels to Europe by finding a courier service online with Parcel Monkey such as the Parcelforce Drop Off Europe service which enables our customers to pay less when they need to ship a box across the channel. When you book a drop off service with Parcel Monkey you will save on not only the cost but also time.
You can book the courier service online, print out your shipping labels and attach them to the box and then take to any of the 11,000 Post Offices across the UK. No more waiting at home for the courier to come and collect, just check out where your nearest Post Office is using our locator tool in the booking process.
You will also find that Parcelforce Drop Off services are quite often cheaper than booking a collection, as the first part of the parcel's journey is completed by you to inject the parcel into the courier network.

How do I arrange parcel delivery into Europe?
We aim to take the stress out of shipping, it is just as easy to send a parcel to Europe as it is in the UK. Just provide us with the destination in Europe you want to ship the parcel to, and the size of the parcel with its weight and we will work out the cost for you in seconds.
When shipping into Europe, you will be sent two labels to print. The first will be for Parcelforce to route to their international hub and then the second will be used by the local courier, often GLS, to route it from the inbound international hub to the recipient. The courier will provide these when they come to collect the parcel, but if your destination needs customs docs, you will need to print these off and attach.
We do recommend if shipping more than one item, to print and attach the labels to avoid any mix ups.
