Maximum Size and weight
We can’t accept really large parcels. By really large, we mean anything that weighs over 15kg and is longer than 1.2m.
We also have a maximum allowed volume, which cannot be greater than 245cm. To work out the volume, you need to add together the 2 shortest dimensions and multiply this by 2. Add the length and if the number you gets is less than 245 then you’re good to go. Here’s a quick example:
- Add together the 2 shortest sides: 40 + 50 = 90
- Multiply this number by 2:90 x 2 = 180.
- Add the longest length to this number: 180 + 55 = 235.
- 235 is less than 245 so this parcel is okay to send.
A quick note on postal tubes
A tube can weigh up to 15kg and must be less than 120cm in length and less than 20cm in diameter.
