PACK & SEND; the UK’s leading specialist packing and shipping company providing end-to-end collection, packing and delivery of virtually any item to anywhere in the world, is delighted to have opened their latest store in Guildford, Surrey.

PACK & SEND Guildford is the most recent of several new units added to the growing franchise store network to increase the coverage for their unique packing and shipping services for both personal and business customers.

PACK & SEND specialise in making sending things safely very easy – whatever it is and wherever it needs to go! They provide professional and secure packing, and domestic and international delivery of items that are fragile, large, awkward or valuable. With an extensive range of domestic delivery options and international freight, cargo shipping and courier services combined with their expert packing experience they are able to live up to their claim of being able to pack and ship anything, anywhere in the world.

The opening of PACK & SEND Guildford marks an extension of their ability to undertake packing and shipping for individuals and businesses of all sizes in Guildford, Woking, Farnborough, Aldershot, Farnham, Godalming, or elsewhere in Surrey and East Hampshire. Their mix of custom collection, secure packing services and wide range of customer friendly shipping options including a unique loss and damage cover for any value of item makes PACK & SEND the only choice for those needing to move anything that has a high financial or emotional value or which simply needs to arrive safely – wherever it is going!

Domestic customers can include tourists requiring excess baggage services, students attending or returning from their studies, people making a short-term or small-scale move or those buying or selling through on-line auction sites such as ebay. Commercial customers use PACK & SEND for short-term moves for employees or equipment, office relocations or the delivery of critical, fragile or awkward items such as the packing and shipping of art and antiques, the shipment of samples, spare parts or proto-types and the safe movement of valuable items such as data servers or laboratory equipment, architectural models or exhibition and display materials.

PACK & SEND’s new Guildford store is owned and run by experienced businessman, Gairn Kalla, who has become a franchisee with the group to develop this new venture following a career in mobile telecoms.

PACK & SEND make a simple promise - to send ‘anything, anywhere!’ - and they have never yet received a request from a customer that they could not fulfil. All their stores offer a unique mix of high-quality secure packing and a wide range of shipping options across the UK and international delivery to 220 countries across the world. Every PACK & SEND store offers over 30 freight shipping options via air, road and sea including door-to-door delivery as well as specialist services for controlled temperature items, high-value items and even ‘accompanied’ shipments where required.

Recent shipments managed by the UK business have included:

-   £1 million specialist lab equipment securely packed and delivered to Sweden and Holland
-   Leading-edge medical test equipment sent to Japan and Germany
-   Specialist server and switch units shipped for many data centres
-   High value art despatched to buyers around the world from galleries across the UK
-   Antiques shipped to and from Bonhams, Christies and Sotheby’s sites around the world as well as other specialist dealers
-   Classic car part deliveries for UK and international buyers
-   Excess baggage handled for tourists and travellers to countries across the globe 

Of course, as with all PACK & SEND stores in the UK and across the world, there will be no need to actually come to the new shop in Guildford at all! PACK & SEND can collect goods and parcels from across the area and secure packing can be undertaken either on-site or at the store so everything can be arranged by phone or e.mail.

PACK & SEND are planning up to 240 stores across the UK; most of which will be operated through a franchise license. Individuals interested in owning a PACK & SEND store can find more information on their website.
