Of course, your concern may not just be cost! Fragile and valuable personal effects often need specialist packing and shipping to ensure safe delivery and PACK & SEND are experts in dealing with such sensitive cargo. Rather than risk loading unprotected valuable souvenirs in an aircraft hold, PACK & SEND can pack it securely and ship it via the most appropriate freight option to guarantee safe delivery – wherever it is going.
There are also occasions when the airline is simply not able to carry particular items or excess baggage due to air cargo restrictions. To reduce inconvenience and to avoid having to leave your personal effects behind, contact PACK & SEND before you travel to check whether restrictions apply to your cargo and what alternative shipping or freight options are available if they do. PACK & SEND take pride in being able to send anything anywhere and will always have an alternative packing, shipping and freight solution for your excess baggage.
Other professional services offered by PACK & SEND include courier services, international shipping, sea freight shipping, excess baggage solutions, parcel delivery, packing moving boxes and packaging services to businesses and private customers, as well as offering a range of quality packaging supplies.

The volumetric weight of a package is a gauge of density. When determining how much to charge for a package, couriers and shipping firms utilise this, also known as dimensional weight. The delivery cost will be determined using the larger of the package’s volumetric weight and actual weight.
As a result, shippers could reduce the price of consignments. If the actual weight is charged, a shipment of clumsy but light items may become impossible to handle.
The final volumetric weight for your package will be influenced by the shipping service used and this range shows the top and bottom values for the dimensions entered. The weight calculation used can be clarified by the Service Centre during the estimate process.
Some airlines have a limited air baggage allowance and will not carry fragile, large, awkward, valuable or heavy items on certain flights. Customers should make their own arrangements for these particular items ahead of time to ensure a cost-effective packing and shipping solution to their excess baggage or excess luggage situation. PACK & SEND ship a range of different excess baggage items including large paintings, electronic and computing equipment, musical instruments, sports equipment and valuable artefacts bought overseas.
Air baggage allowances on airlines can be restrictive and can lead to hefty airline excess baggage fees. To avoid airline excess baggage charges, contact PACK & SEND for a cost-effective packing and shipping solution for your excess baggage.
PACK & SEND can arrange the delivery of excess luggage or excess baggage to any country in the world.
