Take your parcel to a ParcelShop

Your local Evri ParcelShop is a convenient alternative to a Post Office. You can book online, with the Evri app or –if the shop has a Print In ParcelShop device– just turn up with your parcel. Whichever way you choose, you can use our Print In ParcelShop devices to print your label if you don’t have a printer.

Drop off your parcel at a Locker

1. Fill in the basics

Tell us where it's going, where it's coming from and how much it weighs – our maximum weight is 15kg, and you can find out about our size guidelines here. Parcels are priced by weight, so whether your parcel is large or small, it's important to give an accurate weight.

2. Choose your delivery service

You have two simple services to choose from: Next Day – drop off at a ParcelShop or Locker by 12pm on a working day and we’ll do our best to deliver the next working day. It’ll take longer if you drop off at the weekend – see ‘Our Service Commitment’ to you. Standard – send your parcel from a ParcelShop or Locker, or arrange Courier collection. We’ll deliver it within 2 to 5 days. Use our website or the Evri app to book your parcel

3. Fill in your parcel details

Let us know what’s in your parcel (read our simple guide on what you can and can’t send) and how much it’s worth. We include £20 cover for FREE and, for peace of mind, you can increase the cover if your parcel’s worth more. You can also request a digital signature as proof of delivery.

4. Let us know where it's going

Tell us where your parcel is going and – if you’d like your recipient to receive tracking updates – add their email address. We’ll also ask if there’s a safe place where we can deliver the parcel, as well as a return address, your email address and phone number, just in case we can’t deliver the parcel.

5. Pay and print your parcel

All you need to do now is pay then print your label. If you don’t have a printer, you can use a Print In ParcelShop device at most of our ParcelShops – you can find your nearest one here.

Where can I send parcels to?

You can send parcels across the UK with Evri – the only exemptions are the Channel Islands, PO Boxes and British Forces Post Office locations.

Some locations cost us more to deliver to; we may add a location charge of £2.75 when sending parcels to certain postcodes (unless sending to the same postcode area the parcel is sent from e.g BT2 to BT18).

We also deliver parcels to over 200+ countries and territories across the world. Simply book your parcel online and send using our Courier collection service, ParcelShops or Lockers.
