Package to Malta?
I have a pack weighing around 5 kgs which I want send by air to Malta. It is fairly compact so I don't think size will be a critical factor.
I don't have any courier accounts so any suggestions who I can use for a reasonable cost and reliable service?
Now I know that Staples offer a service via DHL but that is pricey. For example a 5 kg box is £69.95 and they even want £49.95 for a 2 kg pack which I can send via Royal Mail for £6.33 at their Air Small Packet rate.
Parcel Force would be £49.
Suggestions please.

What is it you are sending mate, I could possibly arrange sending it thru work but would need it here to do so. Might prove a bit time consuming for you.
If you use P2G make sure they book it properly, they are utter crap at getting addresses etc right for collections.

Thanks Snazzers, that's a kind offer. Won't be for a week or so so I'll let you know.
Am I right in thinking that as Malta is in EU there are no customs forms to worry about? Or is there a value limit?

I think taxes can still apply, I will look into it when i'm at work as to what the current gift limits etc are.
If you allow an extra day for getting it to me, I am happy to forward it for you mate, drop me a pm if you want to look into it. Would be on a next day service unless it's a friday.
