Shipping Golf Clubs Internationally. Surface mail?

Question

Has anyone ever sent Golf clubs using surface mail?

How long did it take?

I would like to send my clubs from Japan to Scotland, anyone have any idea of a time line and can you get a clearer answer if you ask the Post office?

Cheers

Answer 1

it depends on what service you use. but it can take up to a week.

Answer 2

It think that you should use an actual shipping company like UPS or DHL. They can actually give you a time frame in days along with price, when you give the Length, Width and Heigth of the package. It sounds like the package will need to go by air any way you ship it. I would also suggest placing a declared value on the package. This is a type of shipping insurance, if the pagkage is damaged or lost, it's covered
