Simple question, simple yes or no answer needed.

Can you buy those plastic packaging bags that other couriers use at a post office to send something in? I don't have any brown paper to wrap the parcel up and one of the bags will work just fine.

Cheers

Special delivery seems to have its own bag.

It is usually the shop not the Post Office within that sell the bags.

Heavy duty "rubble sacks" from any DIY shop are good for sending medium to large parcels. Cost about 30p each. Buy coloured (rather than plain black) sacks, so the recepient of the parcel doesn't throw it away with the rubbish...

Use a strong bin liner and some packing tape.
