teletech Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 I'm in the US and preparing a CVR(T) for collection from the UK. I've spoken to a few folks who have bits I'm interested in but they must be shipped by courier, lately a couple sights I'd very much like to own. Has anyone got a suggestion for how I might make this happen at a distance? One example would be ~35Kg from Willenhall, West Midlands or Leeds to Birchington, Kent. thanks so much, Pavl_ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean N Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Look at one of the parcel aggregators, such as P4D or Parcel2Go, or the shippers such as Hermes, UPS, ParcelForce. Provided you can get approximate weights and dimensions you should be able to book it all via the website and arrange collection and delivery. I'd recommend P4D personally, very helpful and have real people you can speak to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lauren Child Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Keep in mind that they may well need an export licence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.303fan Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 http://www.interparcel.com i used them for 30kg weight parcels, in the uk and from the uk to nl without issues. you get several quotes to choose from. cheers, Arjan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teletech Posted January 1, 2015 Author Share Posted January 1, 2015 Thanks so much for the tips, Parcel2go was the winner this round. As I'm bringing over a shipping container with a CVR(T), so the shipment is just within the UK. The sights are apparently covered for import/export already as part of a normal vehicle. The paperwork for the import took about 2 months and the export another month. best, Pavl_ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
