It’s that time of year again, pumpkins are being carved, supermarkets have stocked up on multipacks of fun-sized treats, and eBay and Facebook Marketplace are full of second-hand Halloween costumes.
Let’s face it, no one wants to wear the same costume two years in a row and you can reduce the cost of this year’s Halloween outfit if you sell last year's!
But whether you’re sending costumes, decorations or anything else, we've got you covered. Here are 6 handy tips to make sure your shipping experience is more of a treat than a trick.
