The current maximum
parcel lengths for items sent via Royal Mail/Parcel Force are as follows:
Within UK - 150 cm
Outside UK - 60 cm on the longest side for parcels or a
little longer than this if the package can be classed as
a roll
The actual length of the packed item needs to be
slightly shorter than this to allow for sufficient
packaging. This means that sticks and staffs can, unfortunately, no
longer be posted outside of the UK. Items being posted
to destinations within the UK can be a maximum
of 140 cm to allow for packaging.
*Customers in the UK may
need to have the staff or stick shortened
(free of charge, of course) to comply with the postage restrictions*
Restrictions on maximum
sizes permitted outside of the UK seem to have got
stricter and stricter over the last few years. We would
love to be able to go back to posting our larger items
overseas so we apologise for any inconvenience this
situation may cause ... we feel unhappy with it too ...
