Delivery

Delivery times vary, depending on the destination of the parcel. Within Europe, parcels are usually delivered 2–5 days after being handed in. Delivery to the door is also included in certain countries. Calculate the time it takes for the parcel to arrive at the recipient.

Are you sending a parcel within the EU?

If you send a parcel within the EU, a security declaration has to be attached to the shipment.
The security declaration is on the bottom part of the green customs label CN22 (pdf).

Prices

All prices are based on the weight and volume of the parcel. The price varies depending on how you ship the parcel and where it is going. For parcels with a length of more than 1.2 m, there is a supplementary charge, please see the applicable price list for details. See exact prices in the price list.

Volume calculation when a parcel is sent via Send Direct

When paying for a parcel via Send Direct, the shipping cost is calculated using the shipping weight, i.e. the highest of the actual weight or the volumetric weight. The volumetric weight is calculated by multiplying the total volume of the item(s), expressed in cubic meters, by 280 kg. An example of volumetric weight is provided below**.

Consignments may not contain dangerous goods. More information about what you are and are not allowed to send.

**A parcel with the dimensions 0.5 x 0.5 x 0.5 meters has a volume of 0.125 m³. To calculate the volumetric weight, the volume is multiplied by 280 kg (0.125 × 280 = 35 kg). If the actual weight of the parcel were to be 18 kg, for example, you would pay the shipping price for 35 kg i.e. the largest of the actual weight and the volumetric weight.
