Retail boxes are mostly air. Removing outer packaging and repacking to the parcel's real size cuts volumetric weight, which is what you are charged on when a parcel is bulky.
A parcel measuring 40 × 40 × 40 cm is charged at 12.8 kg however little it weighs. Shaving a few centimetres off a box can be worth more than removing an item.
We can hold your packages while the rest of your order arrives, so a later purchase travels in the same parcel rather than paying its own way.
An accurate declaration clears customs faster and avoids the storage and re-inspection charges that a held parcel accumulates. Underdeclaring costs more than it saves.
