If you can’t wait in for a courier to collect your parcel, Parcelforce 48 Drop Off is the ideal solution and offers you two options for dropping off your parcel:
1. Drop off your parcel at a post office - simply attach your pre-paid shipping label and drop off your parcel at your local post office.
If you’re not sure where that is, try our handy post office finder.
2. Drop off your parcel at a Parcelforce depot - depot opening hours tend to be longer than the post office, so if you have a Parcelforce depot nearby, this might be the most convenient option for you
If you’d prefer a courier to collect your parcel, see our Parcelforce Express 48 collection service.
When you book Parcelforce Express 48 with Parcel Monkey, you’ll be able to track your parcel online all the way through to delivery, the same as you would if you booked directly with Parcelforce or through the post office.

Easy to use website and print label
Super easy to use and provided great service.
This service was so easy to use. No hassle. Delivered as expected
Easy to use site. Straightforward process to get label for posting
Parcel delivered safely and in good time.
So easy to do. I was sending a large heavy package and thought it would cost a fortune to send so was surprised it was only £7.14 for a 15kg box to be delivered. I used parcel force so dropped off at the post office where they printed out the labels for me then was able to track thereafter.
I got an email showing a picture of proof of delivery for my parcel. The picture in the email was not a picture of the parcel I sent. I do not know if my parcel was delivered!
Great service, no hiccups at all like with some others.
