Im sending out a lot of low value, but quite heavy ie 1kg items. The post office are expensive - about 4.25 for 1kg, and u cant do it second class as it's too heavy.

Can anyone recommend an alternative?

Rick.

Parcel Force is pretty good but takes 3 days or so.
Can be done from any post office

The problem is that Couriers just dont do any delivery rates that cheap. Most of them give a price for up to 10kg or 20kg. So wont be beneficial for what they would consider to be 'light weight'.
