📜 Overseas Dispatch to the Kingdom of Spain

With Insurance up to £20,000.00 Sterling

Established in the Year of Our Lord Nineteen Hundred and Ninety-Two, Overland Express has, for more than three decades, been entrusted with the secure and timely conveyance of parcels across land and sea - most notably to the noble territories of Spain.

Once we maintained our own carriage fleet upon the highways of Great Britain. Today, in accordance with the modern era, we form exclusive alliances with distinguished names in international delivery - DHL Express and UPS, to offer unparalleled service at prices most agreeable to the purse.

Dispatch at Your Leisure
•  All UPS Services: Have the parcel collected directly from your premises.
•  All UPS Services: If preferred, deposit it at a local UPS depot at your own convenience.

🖋 Regarding Customs & Documentation (Post-Brexit Provisions)

Since the United Kingdom's formal departure from the European Union, all goods bound for the continent must be accompanied by proper declaration.

To that end:

A Commercial Invoice shall be automatically produced on your behalf at the time of booking, based on your supplied particulars.

Commodity Codes, essential for the classification of goods, are provided. Should your item not be listed, consult Gov.uk for proper nomenclature and duty classification.

Kindly ensure all three printed pages of said invoice are enclosed within an envelope, marked “Commercial Invoice”, and affixed securely to the parcel.

Note: This service is valid only for mainland Spain and the nearby islands. Distant or overseas territories of Spain are, alas, not within current reach.

📦 Recommendations for Proper Packing

To preserve the integrity of your shipment, and to satisfy the scrutiny of insurance assessors, the following instructions must be followed with care:

•  A sturdy cardboard box must serve as the outer casing - required by prevailing health protocols.
•  For delicate or precious items:
        •Encase the item in bubble wrap
        •Place it within a smaller interior box
        •Then insert that box into a larger one, well-padded with packing materials
•  A duplicate shipping label should be placed inside the parcel - a safeguard in the event the outer label is mislaid.

Failure to abide by these packing standards may forfeit the right to compensation in the event of mishap or misadventure.

Our Reviews

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.

Southwell Guitars

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.
