All items should be well wrapped with plenty of padding and the boxes secured with packing tape.
Can I use my own boxes or bags?
Whilst in theory you can use your own boxes or bags to send your personal effects, we highly recommend you use the export-strength boxes and cartons we provide as they are purposely designed for international shipping.
Our cartons are double-walled for extra strength and durability to give your items greater protection on their journey. Cheap boxes are more likely to squash or split.
This is why we provide a variety of different box and carton sizes for you to choose from.
For items such as TVs and computers, it is recommended, if possible, to use their original packaging.

Shipping these can cause delays and additional costs.
In addition, if you using air freight there are further restrictions regarding what airlines will allow you to pack.

Do you have bike cartons / boxes for shipping bicycles to Slovenia?
Yes! Whilst you can buy a specialist bike box, we can provide you with a strong cardboard bike carton for shipping your bicycle to Slovenia.
You will need to dismantle some parts of your cycle such as pedals and ensure it is thoroughly cleaned for Slovenian customs, but taking your bike with you is very easy.

Please speak to your Move Manager if your toolbox is very heavy – we have a special service for overweight items.
Please note: Some items such as batteries and gas canisters can be restricted or prohibited. Call us for more details.
Do I self-pack or do you provide a professional packing service?
For this box shipping service customers usually pack by themselves (owner packed).
However, we do also have a professional packing service which is especially useful if you have a large number of boxes, delicate items or are moving to Slovenia with the full contents of your house.
Can I post or mail boxes to Slovenia from the United Kingdom?
Posting boxes, parcels and packages to Slovenia via Royal Mail or other postal services/parcel companies, is only viable if they are under 2kg. Normal courier services are prohibitively expensive if you have large boxes to send.
This is why box shipping services offered by companies such as PSS offer both the fastest and most economical way to ship your belongings.
Do I need marine insurance or shipment protection cover for my belongings?
At PSS we do our very best to take great care of your belongings, so whilst we are confident that your goods are in safe hands, unfortunately, accidents do happen that are beyond our control.
So, in the same way, you have car insurance, travel insurance and home contents insurance to protect you as well as your belongings in the unlikely event that you should need to claim, we recommend for peace of mind, that you take out shipment protection cover.
We offer a flexible and independent shipment protection cover through Basil Fry & Company, the UK’s leading insurance broker for international removals and shipping.
The most popular comprehensive cover (Standard Liability including damage) is calculated at 5% of the total value you declare.
Your Move Manager will be able to give you more details.
