Shipping Advice For Sending Alcohol By Courier
What are my collection and delivery options when using an alcohol courier?
Transporting alcohol requires special attention to ensure it is delivered safely, given that most alcohol is contained in glass bottles. By opting for a trustworthy courier service to collect and deliver your alcohol, you get the confidence that your delivery will arrive in the same condition it was sent.
When considering an alcohol courier service, it's recommended to consider the following:
- Different types and sizes of bottles - knowling what size of parcel to use is important alongside careful packaging. Using a cardboard box and carefully wrapping any glass bottles in bubble wrap can help ensure they do not smash. Using a heavy courier service may be useful if shipping large quantities of cans or crates of alcohol.
- Delivery options - decide on a suitable delivery method, for example, if you would like next day delivery or if recorded delivery is needed to require the alcohol shipment is signed for on arrival.
- Restricted items - before shipping your alcohol, check if it there are any shipping restrictions for both alcohol and glass bottles (view our list of restricted items).
