Edinburgh is particularly well-served for post Officse with many in the city centre itself and others in Stockbridge, Morningside, Newington, Leith, Murrayfield, South Gyle and Portabello. This will be particularly handy for those customers that work during the day and may not be able to arrange a courier to collect from their work. Currently you can only send international parcels from the Post Office that you have booked online with us. Alternatively you could use the Parcelforce depot by Edinburgh Park train station and by the junctions of the M8 and hte A71 with the The City of Edinburgh By-Pass. This depot can accept both parcels for abroad and those staying within the UK.
There other options available should you not want to drop your parcel at either a Post Office or depot. You could have them collected from your office, home or place of work. This option is available at virtually all addresses in the UK and all you need to do is select the particular collection service you wish to use during the booking process. We also have a range of international options which can only be booked by arranging a courier collection.
If you wanted to book a timed service such as early mornings or on a Saturday then we have these options available to you too.

Comments from customers who have sent parcels from Edinburgh.
I had booked for next day day collection which didnt happen. i was disappointed with the booked courier DHL as my parcel was to go to a shipping agent to be sent abroad and I missed the airfreight day and also the driver moaned about the parcels being heavy, a 15kg and a 18kgs boxes
Efficient ordering. Parcel picked up on time for next day delivery by DHL but delayed for a day without explanation and did not in time for an evening meeting.
Still expensive to post anything thats long, even if its light. But what you gonna do?
This review is about the experience I had with the courier I used to deliver this parcel, Evri. It should be noted that I have no issue with Parcel Monkey regarding this problem as their booking system worked flawlessly as it always does. However, I feel this less than ideal experience with one of their partners needs to be passed on to Parcel Monkey so they can hopefully react to it. My parcel was couriered by Evri and was supposed to be a 24hr delivery but they actually managed to take five days over it. It also seems their parcel tracking and delivery notification systems aren’t very good. I sent the parcel on its way on Monday the 27th of January. The following morning I was told this parcel’s delivery had been attempted but had failed. That appeared to be a lie because the following day, Wednesday, the tracking information told me it was nowhere in particular and had no delivery date scheduled. I contaced the Evri customer services number and got automated "assistant" which was very little help. I then contacted the Evri delivery man who is a regular driver for my area and asked him if he could shed some light on the problem. He very kindly asked the Edinburgh Area Manager to look into it and he discovered on the Thursday that my parcel was seemingly in the “National Hub” and would be processed over the weekend with an expected delivery date of Monday. However, on the Friday morning I received a phone call from the driver who was attempting to deliver the parcel telling me there was no one in to collect it. I phoned the recipient who was in fact there so I recontacted the driver and told him to try again. He apparently did so because I then got a message from the recipient telling me had now, in fact, received the parcel. Its delivery time was logged as being at 10.52am. At 12.58 pm, two hours and six minutes after it had actually been delivered, I received a message from an Evri customer services person saying, “As promised Ive checked your parcel this morning and Im sorry it wasnt delivered. Im pleased to see this is now on its way to you. As soon as the courier has your parcel, you will receive an ETA”. To call this shambolic would be an understatement. It was woefully incompetent and there were many times when I though the parcel would never see the light of day again. This caused worry and stress in both myself and the intended recipient since this item was not only valuable but, given its vintage status, irreplaceable. Yes it was insured but that was not the point. Evri came very close, it would appear, to losing this item and I am not impressed.
