Everything was fine only I can write and add I did not like the fact that without calling the driver arrived, I could not be at home.

Cheap but don't offer next day collection with GLS - had to book 3 days in advance. Booked with parcel2 go (next day) with GLS and Irish parcels (booked saturday for Tuesday ) for two different packages - same driver came to collect both ! Both left hub in cork same day . Sake service but Irish Parcels don't charge insurance and dont accept paypal Parcel2go charge for insurance but do paypal !

Thank you very much for your review, Sarah. Unfortunately, we do not currently offer next day services with GLS. However, we do offer next day services with other couriers that we are partnered with, depending on the route and size of the item being sent. We are unable to advise on what is offered by Parcel2Go as they are a separate company from ourselves. If you have any further questions, please contact us and we will be more than happy to help.

Thank you for your review, Austin. Unfortunately, we are unable to guarantee a specific time for collection/delivery ahead of booking as the time-frame is set upon by the courier. However, if you are to give us a call on the morning of your collection/delivery, we should be able to help you get a more precise time from the courier directly. We hope this helps for next time.

If ye could narrow down the window for collection IE before noon or afternoon ,????I'd give it a five star rating Good value and the convienience of having the item collected ,rather than having to carry it to the PO Service is very reliable and the website is easy to use Would recommend to friends and family Thanks

Excellent service. Collects when they say they will and the parcel arrived on time and, most importantly, in good shape

It would be better if the driver phoned to give a pick up time before hand.

Thank you very much for your review, Dawn. Unfortunately, drivers are not issued with phones for work purposes for health and safety reasons, and so we therefore cannot guarantee that they will call prior to collection or delivery. Although we cannot provide more accurate time-slots for collections/deliveries ahead of booking, if you give us a call on the morning of your collection/delivery, we may be able to help you get a more precise time from the courier. We hope this helps for next time. If you have any further questions, please do let me know and I will be more than happy to help.

Online purchase was straight forward, price was fair. However despite delivery being guaranteed for the 16th Dec, the package wasn't delivered until COB on the 19th Dec.

This was my first time to use Irish Parcels as a private customer and I am happy with the service I received. Bonus for me was the collection from my door on the requested day , and the pleasant attitude of the staff I dealt with. They could have highlighted better that you had to print off two copies of the address label: I printed one off to stick on the parcel, but was under the impression they were going to email me a copy of that to hand to the collection driver. However he sorted that out.

Very good service, quick and fair price. Only one bad thing need to be mentioned, I was waiting for a pickup all day and nobody show up, I haven't been adviced about any delay, so I had to call to enquiry during late evening and they rescheduled the collection for me the day after.

By far the cheapest solution for a 10kg parcel from Ireland to Germany. GLS actually picked up and delivered the parcel. GLS wanted nearly twice the price when I went direct to their website!!!??? Irish Parcels are a little more expensive than my regular couriers for Irish deliveries though.

I was happy with the service overall. It may help other customers to state the parcel should ideally be placed in a box on the website for collection and delivery if this is a requirement which would make the service more efficient and easier to manage overall.

Thank you very much for your review, Patricia. We do advise in our FAQs that you can use your own boxes/packaging as long as it is suitable to safely transport your items in. Boxes are not strictly a requirement on our services, however, we do recommend them. We also advise that we do not accept suitcases/bags as packaging. We hope this helps. If you have any further questions, please do let us know and we will be more than happy to help.
