How do I send a parcel to Greece from the UK?

With DHL Express, you can choose FREE packaging to send your items in when you send with DHL Service Point. When packaging your items, use cushioning materials to make sure your contents do not move around in the box and get damaged. Please do not completely seal your parcel as DHL needs to check contents before it’s sent in the network.
