We are the cheapest way to ship a parcel to Europe, but do not confuse cheap with cheap. What do we mean by this? We only offer premium services like DHL European delivery, UPS parcel delivery to Europe and DPD European shipping. We do not use budget courier services to Europe as experience has taught us that these European delivery services invariably lead to customer disappointment, all for the sake of a couple of pounds.
You might wonder how we are able to offer these European parcel delivery services cheaper than what DHL, UPS and DPD can offer them directly? Well, that is an easy question to answer, our buying power allows us to purchase these European deliveries at a hugely discounted rate.
Not only that, but these companies do not offer competitive rates to the general public, as they would rather deal with volume purchasers of their services as opposed to one off buyers. Which means that by using Overland Express you can vastly reduce the cost of shipping to Europe.
When you send parcels to Europe, a cardboard box must be used for the outer packaging due to COVID-19 handling restrictions.
The majority of parcel deliveries to Europe can also be insured up to £20,000.00 (exclusions apply) for the nominal price of just 2.00% of the declared value. All of our delivery services to Europe are fully tracked, door to door.
We also offer deliveries from Europe to the United Kingdom, to find out the cost of sending a parcel to Europe or shipping a parcel from Europe to the United Kingdom, use our quote tool above to see our cheap European delivery services.

Our partner courier's European shipping services are second to none, with many areas benefiting from next day European delivery, the further afield European delivery destinations usually take a day or so longer.
