Shipping Advice For Sending Guitars By Courier
What are my collection and delivery options when using a guitar courier?
Choosing a reliable courier service to collect your guitar and deliver it safely to its destination is instrumental in ensuring it arrives safely. Keep in mind the following when considering a guitar courier service for your instrument:
- Package your instrument carefully - always use a sturdy case, including the original guitar case, given the fragile nature of the instrument. Carefully fill any gaps with packafing foam and foam pellets, bubble wrap and packaging tape where needed to ensure the item won't shift too much in the box and cause damage. It's also worth loosening strings to lessen the risk of them snapping if they are too tight.
- Delivery options - it's easy to find our which courier will ship guitars and guitar cases, simply measure and weigh your case in its protective parcel and then use our quote tool to find and compare prices from all couriers.
- Prohibited items - prior to dispatching your guitar(s), ensure they're allowed for shipping (view our list of restricted items).
