Parcel Forwarding Service From UK to Australia.

You get a real UK address at our Manchester warehouse, use it at checkout in any British store, and we forward the parcel on to your address in Australia. To the shop it is an ordinary domestic delivery, which opens up the many British retailers that have never shipped this far.

Yes. Forwarding is a completely normal, legal service used by millions of shoppers, and your parcel is declared to Australian customs like any other import. As with any provider, check independent reviews rather than relying on a company’s own claims.

Royal Mail International Tracked (£33.70) is the cheapest by a clear margin, and FedEx World Express is the fastest at 3–5 working days. The calculator above prices every service for your actual weight and size.

Five to nine days door to door for most services: 3–5 working days with FedEx World Express, 5–7 with Royal Mail or DPD Air Express, 6–8 with Parcelforce. It is a long-haul route, so allow a little slack around peak periods.

Usually not. Parcels worth A$1,000 or less clear without customs duty or border charges, and that covers most ordinary orders. Above A$1,000 the Border Force collects duty (commonly 5%, 0% on most computing gear), 10% GST and an import processing charge.

The UK address itself is free, with no subscription. You pay only when you ship: from £33.70 for a 1 kg parcel, plus £2 + VAT if you want several orders combined into one. Storage is free for the first 30 days.

On this route combining almost always wins. Air freight to Australia is the dominant cost, so paying it once instead of four times saves far more than the duty you would avoid — and only the portion above A$1,000 attracts charges anyway. For very high-value orders it is worth doing the sums, and we are happy to help.

Any store that delivers within the UK: ASOS, Next, Marks & Spencer, John Lewis, Argos, Currys, Boots, Superdrug and thousands more. If a store will not take your Australian card, our Buy For Me service can buy the items for you.

Only above A$1,000. Customs duty is commonly 5% for consumer goods, with most computers, phones and books at 0%. GST of 10% then applies to the goods, shipping and duty together, along with an import processing charge.

Royal Mail, DPD, Parcelforce and FedEx all run this route, and the calculator shows each available service with live prices and delivery dates so you can pick your balance of speed and cost.

Plenty of British retailers only accept UK-issued cards. Our Buy For Me service solves that: tell us what you want, we purchase it on your behalf with our own local payment details, then forward it to you like any other order.
