What is the maximum weight allowed for a parcel?

Asked 2 years ago
Parcelforce has specific weight limits for the parcels they handle, which can vary depending on the service chosen. Generally, for most domestic services, the maximum weight for a single parcel is typically around thirty kilograms. However, for international shipments, the weight limit may differ, often allowing larger weights depending on the destination. In some cases, Parcelforce may offer services that accommodate heavier shipments, but additional fees and conditions may apply. It is always advisable to ensure that parcels are securely packed to stay within the guidelines provided by Parcelforce. For the most up-to-date information regarding weight limits and any related charges, checking the official Parcelforce website is a good approach.
