ipostparcels.com, UK Mail’s online consumer parcel delivery service, has made significant price cuts across its UK and International delivery service to offer customers more value for money and with the rise of international shipping within the business.
International delivery prices to the Republic of Ireland have reduced by up to 23% after seeing a high volume of parcels being shipped to the ROI over the last few months. Prices are now starting from as little as £9.99, making ipostparcels.com one of the most affordable international delivery companies in the UK. The trend for selling cross border has been on the rise in recent times, the latest Internet Retailer survey shows an increase in international trade with 75% of e-retailers already selling to customers abroad; of the remaining quarter, 70% plan to start doing so within a year. ipostparcels.com has seen a staggering 963% increase in international delivery since its initial launch back in June 2013.
In addition, ipostparcels.com is aiming to give customers more value for their money with changes to specific parcel sizes. The price has reduced for their XXL large parcel weight option; customers can now send a parcel weighing up to 25KG with no single dimension exceeding 80cm from just £12.49, previously £15.49. Their XS parcel weight allowance has doubled to 2kg for both next and 2-3 day delivery service.
Guy Buswell, CEO of the UK Mail Group, said, “We’re always looking at improving our service and giving customers a quality service at a low cost. Our international delivery service has seen a huge increase since launch and proves that international e-commerce is on the rise. We’re proud to be able to offer small businesses the opportunity to operate on a global scale with our affordable yet highly experienced service. Giving customers more value for their money is key to our ethos and with the expansion of our parcel sizes, customers can accommodate for more whilst saving themselves money.”
