Posting to romainia

Hi, i`ve got to send a serial emulator to a software writer in romainia. I want him to get it by friday, or monday latest. Anyone know of an alternative to royal mail (backlog from postal strike/ next strike is concerning me). Or is there a service like special delivery so I know it will be out of the country within a day. ( I bet the romainian postal service is much better than ours at the moment.)

Thanks
Darren

parcel to go or tnt
The royal fail has a backlog reported at 30 million items per day of strike......with a lot of strike action round the main centers london ect I would expect the overseas mail to get backed up as well. I would avoid rm at all costs

as recommended to me on here last week www.parcels2go.com should get you a selection of quotes from a range of different companies

Thanks guys. I`m in the outskirts of london so had a feeling that I would be affected.
Also I have an incling that there will be a bit less regard toward mail at the momment. A Fragile sign probally will make sure it gets stamped on.

Thanks

I sent a mk2 escort steering rack by interparcel. It was collected on friday morning by courier @10AM GMT . It arrived in Oklahoma on Monday morning 9.45AM Central time !!!

I could'nt have got it there much quicker if I carried it with me on the plane

Always had wonderful service from interparcel
