I had the pleasure of working with PACK & SEND recently. I had a bit of a disaster with customs this time, fortunately for my sake I had Cristina on my side. She did a fantastic job of keeping in contact with the tracking of my parcels and kept me updated with any issues that arose. I would highly recommend them for any of your shipping needs and will most definitely be using them again.read more

I can not recommend these guys enough! Packaging was pro, got my glass table safely from London to NY despite it being turned around by customs. Since it was not their fault, they faught hard for me and it made its way back here without additional costs. I was panicked but they took care of it every step and I never had to lift a finger. Thank you Pack & Send. I will definitely rely on you in the future!read more

Very good service, I needed to send an expensive guitar and it was difficult to find a courier with adequate insurance cover, most will not provide insurance for musical instruments at all. Pack and send sorted this out for me and were very pleasant to deal with.read more

Pack and Send in Bristol West have been fantastic in sending a much loved vintage teak Danish coffee table from Bournemouth to Edinburgh. I was very reluctant to let it into others hands, but the long drive was too much. And it has just arrived safely. They picked it up from Bournemouth in a padded van, and in Bristol created bespoke packaging to keep it safe on its onward journey. Thank you. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending them.read more

I was in dire need to find someone locally to ship a rare piece of art to Japan form the UK. That is how I come across Pack and send Bristol. The guy there was more than helpful with explaining every step of the process and created custom packaging for my item so it was to be shipped safely and securely. I must admit i was very happy with the customer service as well as the process. I was always kept up to date on the status of the parcel all the way to its destination and the recipient was also very impressed with how well packaged the item was. I would highly recommend this company to anyone needing a similar service.read more

5 stars is not enough! I needed to ship some awkwardly shaped metal sound sculptures to Denmark. Ian and his team were brilliant to work with. The items were collected from my driveway to be packed into a sturdy crate - that arrived very quickly, in perfect condition for my arrival later in the month. It was returned in record timing with careful attention to detail and very clear communications and instructions for everyone involved. Everything went very smoothly with no delays - the whole process was absolutely stress free. I would not hesitate to highly recommend.

This is the first time I have used Pack & Send. I normally go direct to FedEx or DHL. By mistake I rang their number thinking it was DHL. The person on the phone stated to use also DHL for sending items. The price was also fairly competitive compared to a quote from FedEx. I took a leap of faith and I am pleasantly surprised that the item arrived on the other side of the world within the time frame advised. The staff at the depot were incredibly helpful. The item was dispatched and I was informed through the tracking number where the item was located. I highly recommend this company and will definitely be using them in the future.read more

I was panicked because we were moving and I realized all of the things that I could not properly pack or take with me on the plane. I had a two day window to find help when I located Pack & Send. I was able to speak with Leanne and she sent someone the same day to collect my items - he came and gathered the items into temporary packing boxes with such care and respect. I was very impressed and pleased.Next, I left for my destination, trusting that everything would make it to me eventually. My biggest concern had been getting the items out of the house before I had to leave. I didn't mind how long it would take to get them to me.I was kept informed as to the progress of my items, when they were packed, what I needed to provide for the shipping and customs information, and when the items were sent on their way with tracking numbers to follow the trip. In the end, my items were held in customs for more than two weeks. I worked with customs and was back and forth with emails and waiting. At one point, Leanne reached out to me letting me know that she had been in contact with the shipping company to see if there was anything more that could be done from her end to expedite the delivery! I couldn't believe it -- Pack & Send followed my items all the way to my door!When everything arrived, it was so well packed and all in perfect condition - everything had been packed with care. I couldn't have done any better.I am not one to write reviews ... even as much as I rely on them for making choices ... but when something is so well done, it needs to be recognized. Pack & Send is as friendly as family and as professional and precise in their work beyond what we have become used to. I am so pleased that I found this service and office and was able to support such a good business. I hope they continue to provide such excellence for years to come! Thank you.read more

A quick call to Ian at Pack & Send Bristol West was the best decision I’ve made.I needed to send 2 bronze sculptures to both Sidney, Australia and Edinburgh, Scotland and was struggling to come up with a solution.Ian talked me through the process and options and quoted me based on my request.I dropped both sculptures off at the Bristol branch where Ian reassured me of the packaging to be used and how the bronzes would be safely secured. He even went out of his way to get a driver to pick up more specialist packaging from London that wasn’t available locally to ensure my sculptures were delivered on time.Both of my bronzes arrived quickly and in perfect condition and both customers were ‘amazed’ at the standard of the packaging. I got extremely positive feedback which in turn made me look good, so thank you Ian.I’m already planning on using Pack & Send Bristol West to deliver my next batch of artwork and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Ian’s Bristol branch to anyone thinking of sending anything anywhere.read more
