Cheapest price for sending small parcels UK
 

I currently use RM mailmark 2nd class @ £2.64

Hermes 2-5 delivery (tracked) is £1.99 ex VAT which is considerably cheaper and is definitely worth considering when dealing with small margins.

Do business accounts get this cost down much more? I was told 150+ parcels per week is the criteria for such account.

Does anyone know Hermes successful delivery rate? I’ve heard it’s pretty poor however I have no experience,

Are there any better options?

Honestly, sounds like your doing a decent job already, as I think your using a franking machine for the mentioned RM prices. Dont know what your selling, but could you vaccum pack them for any smaller dimensions. letterbox size.

You need to contact royalmail and they will give you quote for large amount of parcel and will count best price for you.

Don't ever use my Hermes . If item is lost there is no way you will get you're money back. There comp exclusion list is everything except a piece of paper. Stems go missing all the time . Delivery drivers don't give a short. Damaged. Don't use them. Royal mail all the way.
