Hi all, i'm considering giving up my office as i am hardly ever there and do most of my work from home. One thing i would miss is the business address for handling my small parcels that arrive (around 100 small parcels per month). I have noticed that there are a few companies that will give you a virtual address and handle your parcels on your behalf sending them to your designated address. This sounds like it could work for me.

I wondered if anyone used this kind of service and could recommend a good reliable company at a decent price please?

I'm guessing you mean somewhere you can have them delivered to then ship them to you in one go?

How about a small serviced office? I deliver stuff to a serviced office and they have a number of companies who aren't based there but use them as a drop point for parcels

Yes, that's it. Ship to their address and then once 10 or 15 parcels have arrived with them i will request that they ship them to me.

If there is a self storage place near you then you can probably do a deal where they'll put them in your unit and you can collect them at your leisure.

Don't know if you've got one of these near you, but they fit the bill

I think Mail Workshop can do that, but their speciality is more on the fulfilment side - http://www.mailworkshop.co.uk
