Top quality at a fair price
Parcel prices custom-made! It depends on the size! At GLS, the parcel prices for dispatching from the Parcel Shops are calculated by the size, not by the weight.
From XS as in extra Small, to XL as in extra Large - the Parcel Shop parcels are divided into five different parcel sizes with five price-categories.
The size of your parcel (longest side + shortest side) is measured in your parcel shop with a tape measure.
There are five different price-categories in relation to the five size-categories, independent of the weight (max. 30 kg within Ireland / 50 kg export). Your parcel is insured to a maximum amount of 350,- EUR.
