I have been using ParcelMonkey for many years now to send parcels mainly to Japan. I usually choose their cheapest carrier. They are always reliable, deliver on time and keep informed of any issues that might arise along the way.

The process of booking the parcel was good, but when I went to Yodels own website to find the drop off address I found that it would have been half the price to go to them direct.

It was nice experience with parcel monkey

Received a notification of an excess charge due to an oversized parcel. I contacted PM to challenge as the parcel was dropped off with the correct weight & dimensions. Initially PM responded to my complaint but when i confirmed I required them to challenge & I also provided evidence as requested by them I have since heard nothing & have no way of updating the complaint string on their page to ask why. Basics of running a business is you need to be able trust a company you deal with. Unfortunately I can no longer trust PM so I wont be doing further business and with them. Not mentioning the fact Im also unfairly £50 out of pocket.

I have reviewed Parcel Monkey previously on Trust Pilot but it was several years ago. Still an amazing service, all you need is the dimensions and weight of your parcel and where it’s going and Parcel Monely give you loads of different options and prices for delivering your parcel. All done online, you can even arrange someone to come to your house to collect your parcel for you and bring labels with them. Brilliant. 5 stars from me.

Truly excellent service. Goods collected when expected and reached end delivery point in the USA ( two locations) in exceptional timescale. Well done.

First time using Parcel Monkey having used other companies to send parcels to family in Hong Kong. This will now be my first port of call as the service has been brilliant. So simple to book online, great communication and fantastic value for money.

Parcelforce did not pick up on the arranged collection date. No explanation as to why and no apology.

Did what it said on the tin?

One of the parcels was severely delayed despite us paying a premium for a rapid service. No comms from shipper or Parcel Monkey to notify us or explain the reason. This caused considerable anxiety and bad feeling with the recipient. Poor service - wish we’d just gone to a Post Office.

This is more a review of the service received from ParcelForce through parcel monkey. I needed to get a small packet to France. Of the available services parcel monkey indicated that parcel force could achieve this in three days, other services were available forecasting 2 to 4 days. After one week, parcel force still have not delivered the packet I do not know what come back I can have having engaged parcel force through parcel monkey.

The service was easy to use and all went well until my parcel which I had paid for Express 24 with Parcelforce didnt arrive the next day. I hadnt got it to the Post Office until 1.15 pm so was happy to accept that it might not reach the recipient until 48 hours later. Unfortunately, it took a week to reach the recipient!

Easy to place the order via Parcel Monkey for a DHL Next Day (working day) delivery.
Parcel picked up on Friday for a Monday delivery. However on Monday DHL notified me of a delay, no explanation or refund given, and Parcel was delivered on the Tuesday. Frustrating and almost impossible to get in touch with DHL to speak to anyone so will think twice before using DHL again.

As always parcel monkey delivery was on time

Sometimes parcels are too big to use drop off and so we ask for collection. Couriers always arrive so we are never let down a with other intermediaries. Good communication so we know exactly when parcels have arrived at their destinations. Parcel Monkey is our go to now for all parcels.

Easy to do, parcel picked up when agreed,
Unfortunate that the firm you passed it onto, are nowhere near as professional ( Evri still haven’t delivered the parcel that they received from parcel monkey
29/07/25 by Heather Griffiths-Browne
Absolutely dreadful, I need to amend an address urgently and nobody has gotten back to me in almost 24 hours, theres no number to call or live chat... and they sell express couriers services (= urgent). Unbelievable. Im glad I paid using PayPal and could open a case with only a few clicks, hoping Ill get my money back so that I can book elsewhere more reliable.

Worked first time round and cheaper that PF

I have sent my sons parcel via UPS using Parcel Monkey to the US - It is not made clear their website that there is high costs to pay to actually deliver the parcel in the usa for customs! so its cost me over £400 to send my son a framed pcture he had in UK before moving to states!! I will not use this company again

So everything went really well until the people I sent the item to got intouch to tell me to speak with the insurers as the couriers had damaged the item and it was now beyond economical repair. I did this and gathered all the info to Parcel Monkey and filled in the various forms they sent but was told they would not be paying out. I argued this point and they requested I send pictures of the packing, which I did. When I further pestered them they asked for evidence of my payment for the item. Thankfully I am quite organised and could find this and sent that on. Well .... I am still waiting and have been told its with a higher management team. They have everything they need, I would have thought they had already made the decision they would be paying out, it was just the amount and so they requested proof of my payment - so having paid an extortionate amount for insurance I am left still waiting. It is unbelievably inadequate. Go Royal Mail or even Direct with Evri because this is madness.

Great choice of couriers & very competitive pricing. Love the buy again option as I send parcels regularly to the same customer.
