What counts as a large parcel
A large parcel is one that fits a bigger size and weight band. Couriers price by the band your parcel fits, so bigger bands cost more.
Prices depend on both size and weight. A parcel can be small but heavy, or big but light. Either can move it into a higher band.
Measure before you book. Check your parcel's size and weight first, then find the band it fits. You can then compare prices for the right band from the start.
Our tables show prices for sending one parcel within the UK mainland. Each table shows the date its prices were last checked. Find your band, then start with the cheapest option in the table. For more ideas, read our guide to cheapest parcel delivery.
How to pay less for a big parcel
Dropping your parcel off usually costs less than having a courier collect it from your door. Take it to a shop, locker or counter to save money.
Next, compare couriers in one quote. A parcel booking site such as Interparcel sells many couriers' services together, with drop-off and collection options. Enter your parcel's size and weight, then compare the prices side by side.
Royal Mail and Parcelforce online prices are cheaper than paying at a Post Office counter. Book online to pay less.
Choose a tracked service too. It lets you follow your parcel online until it is delivered. An untracked service does not. Our tables rank every deal by real cost alone, so check the date each table was last checked and start at the top row.
Pack it to arrive safely
Good packing protects your parcel on its journey. Four simple habits help.
- Use a strong, sturdy box that fits the item snugly.
- Fill every gap with padding, such as paper or bubble wrap, so nothing moves.
- Seal all seams with strong packing tape, not sticky tape.
- Write the full address on the parcel, and put a copy inside too.
