Subject: Economical international freight
machines to arrive slowly on
a boat. What options are available? I'd be interested in
hearing anyone's
experiences in getting large
heavy items shipped overseas as economically as possible.
All questions can be answered using the Royal Mail's postal calculator,
which gives you total costs for several delivery options based on weight in
kilos. The URL I use is
http://sg.royalmail.com/servlet/acedispatcher?funcId=100&AceApplication…
ignia&pageId=frameset
but it can also be found at the bottom of the 'postal prices' page at
www.royalmail.com. Ah, no it can't, they've redesigned their website so it
doesn't work in either Firebird or IE 5.5. Bless 'em.
I haven't found a cheaper way of sending stuff overseas - they're cheaper
than any other carrier. Just make sure whatever you're sending is very well
packed!
cheers
