Sending options
Ship with UPS without needing a printer, so you can send even if you're not set up for labels at home. Drop-off options are also provided, giving you shipping flexibility.
Collection & tracking
UPS collections and deliveries run from 8am to 8pm, so there's a generous window to fit sending around your day. Every shipment is fully tracked, keeping you and your customer informed from door to door.
Size & weight limits
Send parcels with UPS up to a maximum weight of 70kg, making it a strong choice for heavier consignments. The maximum parcel size is 274cm, so there's plenty of room for larger items.

The UPS maximum parcel weight is 70kg, with same-day booking, late collection and 3 delivery attempts as standard on most shipments.

How UPS collection and delivery works
UPS collection, prices and surcharges
UPS next-day collection is free, with 1 collection attempt. If you miss it, next-day rebooking is free, though same-day rebooking incurs a charge. If your parcel is within Access Point size and weight limits, you can drop it at a local UPS Access Point instead.
Learn more about collection & delivery
Your quoted price includes all applicable surcharges. Parcels exceeding 300cm length plus girth incur UPS surcharges, so keep under this size where you can.
UPS surcharges for large & heavy parcels
Prohibited items
UPS ships personal effects such as clothing, shoes and electronics, but many items can't be sent, some less obvious than others, so always check the prohibited list before shipping. Some countries also restrict particular items, so verify with the local customs authority if you're sending anything unusual.
Parcelhero has a global prohibited items list covering all carriers. The following items are top 5 prohibited items by UPS.
Perfume
Batteries
Aerosols
Flammable liquids
Animal skins (non-domesticated)

Why choose UPS
UPS offer extremely fast delivery, their USA, EU and Far East services in particular offer exceptional transit times. The UPS Economy Standard and Expedited service offer much cheaper rates with transit times that are generally only 1-2 days longer than express. Whilst UPS is quite strict about the commodities they carry, along with the max size and weight, as long as your shipment falls within their parameters, UPS services offer high reliability and great value for money.
