For more than 30 years, Overland Express has been proud to help individuals and businesses connect with Spain, whether sending gifts, important documents, or valuable goods. Since 1992, our journey began with our own fleet of vehicles, but today, we've partnered with industry leaders like DHL Express and UPS to provide you with trusted, world-class delivery services.
Though we may mention delivery trucks in our descriptions, rest assured that parcels destined for overseas countries, including Spain, travel by air to reach their destination swiftly and securely.
Why Choose Overland Express? Because Your Parcel Deserves the Best
Our commitment is simple: to deliver your parcels quickly, reliably, and affordably. Thanks to our lean business model and strong courier partnerships, we secure the best rates and pass those savings directly to you. This means you get premium service at prices often better than what you'll find elsewhere.
We believe in quality over compromise. While budget courier options may seem appealing, they often fall short with longer transit times and inconsistent reliability. With Overland Express, your parcel reaches Spain in just 1 to 2 working days via UPS Express Saver - faster than Royal Mail or other providers, such as Evri.
Protect What Matters Most - Insurance Up to £20,000.00
We understand that some parcels carry more than just goods—they carry memories, value, and trust. Our delivery service includes £50.00 cover for loss or damage, but for those truly valuable items, we offer comprehensive insurance up to £20,000.00, ensuring your peace of mind every step of the way.
Careful packaging is essential. We recommend strong cardboard boxes, cushioning, and wrapping fragile items to keep them safe on their journey. Proper packaging supports your insurance coverage and helps us safeguard what you send.
Simplifying Customs in a New Era
With new regulations following the UK's departure from the EU, sending parcels to Spain requires customs documentation. We make this easy with an automated system that produces the necessary commercial invoice based on your booking details.
You will receive this invoice by email. Simply print all three pages, place them in an envelope marked “Commercial Invoice”, and affix it securely to your parcel.
Please Note: our service covers mainland Spain and local islands, excluding distant islands and overseas territories.
Convenience Tailored to You
Your time is valuable. That's why UPS Express collections happen right at your doorstep. Prefer Drop Off services? You can choose to arrange collection or drop your parcel off at a nearby UPS collection point, whatever suits your schedule.
Real People Ready to Support You
At Overland Express, you're never just a number. Our friendly UK-based customer service team is here to listen, advise, and assist with your questions - by phone or email. You can trust that real people with real expertise will support your shipment.

Don't just take our word for it, see what other people are saying about us.
Feline Guitars has partnered with this small company for several years and consistently received excellent service and competitive pricing. Before that, we dealt directly with UPS, but found communication increasingly difficult. In an industry that's becoming more automated and impersonal, the personal attention and support offered by this team is both refreshing and greatly appreciated.

Southwell Guitars has been using Overland Express for several years to ship our instruments around the world. Unlike most major courier companies, which typically don't insure musical instruments, Overland Express offers a specialist insurance service tailored specifically for them—providing peace of mind for both my customers and myself. I also appreciate how accessible Stuart and Tim are—they're always easy to reach if I have questions or need assistance. Their support was especially valuable during the disruption caused by Brexit and the COVID pandemic. Overland Express is my go-to courier for shipping guitars, something I do regularly, and I recommend their services without hesitation.

I've been using Overland Express for several years now to ship a significant number of both electric and acoustic guitars annually. I needed a shipping company that not only offered competitive rates but also provided insurance that would genuinely cover the full value of the instruments in the event of loss or damage. That's exactly what I found with Stuart and the team at Overland Express. They work with top-tier couriers and offer affordable insurance options for worldwide guitar shipping. In all the years I've used their service, I haven't encountered a single issue. Their service is fast, dependable, and it's a real advantage to have easy access to someone who can promptly assist if anything does come up. Highly recommended.

Parcels that contain Paint and liquid based products can be notoriously difficult to ship due to the nature of them, we have several specialist services that can be used to ship these items in limited quantities by road.
