Redirecting mail UK -> Cyprus

Postby Sega » Sun Nov 04, 2007 9:02 am

I have mail in the UK, which goes to my home address there. Luckily I have family which directs the post to me.

I am just wondering if there is any way to direct my mail to Cyprus and if so what are the prices on such as task? Sometimes I do purchases online, however some items only deliver to the UK, is there a way to redirect these packages too and if so what are the prices likely to be?

We just went to the post office in the UK and asked them to re-direct all our mail.

Worked a treat.

What about huge packets, like clothes and so forth you order on the internet... do you think that would work? Would they bring it to my address here?

You should find out the tariffs online. why not check the post office website for redirections services and Parcelforce global deliveries? or you could go direct to the Parcelforce website.

Alternatively, you could set up an account with Mail Boxes etc. Again, you can check the website. They can offer you a mail box and can hold larger parcels for collection. They can also arrange to send you almost anything you ask them to using either normal post or courier service. I think they may also even arrange shipments of bulkier items.

But as a general rule, Id advise against shipping bulky things to Cyprus unless they're really expensive. Better just by locally.
