I use these for booking my larger parcels through parcel force dhl ect but they also offer a small packet service.
haven't used it before but I might give them a go after the price rises next month.

I have also joined despatch bay and wont be using them. When i log in it says standard parcel from 2.48.
What a joke. Fill in details to send 1 mug and it comes to 6.08. Lol
apparently the more you send the cheaper it gets. Well thats not true really because i wont be sending anything at that price.

That size box is good but too tall for standard mugs. You would have to use alot of extra packing to pack out near on 50mm
can only comment on what mugs i use.

You'd just slice down the sides and fold over rather than pack it out.
