Royal Mail or a courier?
The cheapest Royal Mail option is Tracked 48 (bought online) at £3.75, and the cheapest courier is Evri ParcelShop to ParcelShop at £2.62 – so for a hoodie, a courier is cheaper by £1.13. Royal Mail delivers to the door and you can hand it in at any Post Office; courier drop-off services are often cheaper but may need the recipient to collect from a shop or locker.
How to pack a hoodie for posting
- Fold the hoodie in half lengthways, then roll it tightly from the hood down.
- Put it in a mailing bag sized to fit, and squeeze out the air before sealing.
- Check the parcel stays under 45 x 35 x 16cm and 2kg - almost all hoodies do.
- Add a printed label in a clear pouch so rain can't smudge the address.
Common mistake: A big mailing bag full of air can push a hoodie over the 16cm depth limit. Use a bag that fits and press it flat.
