Mail Forwarding — FAQ

How fast is mail forwarded?

Mail is typically processed and dispatched within 1–2 working days of arrival. UK First Class usually arrives within 1–2 days after dispatch; international forwarding is sent tracked depending on destination.

Can I have my mail scanned instead of forwarded?

Yes. With an eligible plan, we can open, scan and email you a copy of each item so you can view your post from anywhere in the world — requesting forwarding only for the items you actually want delivered.

Can you forward mail internationally?

Yes. We forward to any address in the UK and to international destinations, using tracked postal services so important documents and parcels can be traced.

What happens to parcels and larger packages?

Parcels are held securely on site. We notify you of arrival and arrange a convenient forwarding, collection or redelivery based on your plan and the package size.
