How You Can Save on Importing Goods in 2022

It’s a new year and a fresh opportunity to do a whole lot of new things, and one resolution that’s always at the top of people’s minds is saving some extra bucks where possible. Those who love online shopping will know that hunting down the best deals available can save you in the long run, especially for products you urgently need, and for those budding purchasers, there’s a way to keep import costs and general shopping costs down, thanks to a South African service.

Postbox Courier is a globe-spanning, but proudly South African, courier service which not only opens the door to stores in the US, UK, and more who usually don’t ship to SA, but also allows you to bundle orders together, saving you on having to individually ship multiple items.

Having the ability to shop on the big-name retailers in the US or UK — like Amazon, BestBuy, and Walmart — will help you find some seriously tempting deals, with everything from tech, fashion, and gaming goods being discounted regularly. You’ll often find a solid special, even taking into account the customs duties and import fees.

Furthermore, being able to combine your orders, such as a PS5 from Amazon and some stylish tees from Asos, into one box makes the overall importing costs significantly cheaper, thanks to not having to send a couple of packages all the way to your door in the good ole Republic.

With Postbox Courier, you get a personal postbox address in New York City, London, and other hubs across the world. You can then use this address during checkout when shopping on an international retailer to send the package there, and the trusty team at Postbox Courier will ensure to get it from there right back here to your doorstep in SA.

The even better news is that registering with Postbox Courier is FREE, quick and easy and once you’ve registered you’ll get your very own delivery address in the UK, Hong Kong, US and Australia. Then, when it comes time to shop all you need to do is have your goods delivered to your most appropriate address.

Plus, if you’re not sure what the cost will be to import, there’s a handy calculator that can give you an idea of your import charges and courier fees.
