Best Packaging for Clothes
Don't use a box — clothes are soft and flexible. Use a polythene mailing bag (grey postal bags). They're lighter, cheaper, and most couriers charge by weight, so lighter packaging = lower cost. You can buy 100 bags for under £5 on Amazon.
Cheapest Options
Most clothing parcels weigh 0.3-1kg. At this weight, your cheapest options are:
- InPost Locker: £2.29 — drop at a 24/7 locker, collected from a locker
- Evri Standard: £2.50 — drop at a ParcelShop
- Royal Mail 2nd Class: £3.35 — drop at Post Office
For Vinted/eBay Sellers
If you're selling clothes online, Evri is your best friend. At £2.50 per parcel with tracking, it's hard to beat. Many Vinted sellers build £2.99 shipping into their price and pocket the difference.
