I want to send bulky items. What do I need to consider?

Some shipments cannot be transported by the conveyor belts in our automatic sorting systems because of their size or outer packaging. GLS sorts and scans these “non-conveyable” consignments manually in the depots and distribution hub. This incurs a surcharge. This includes among others:

• Sacks, tyres, rolls, bales of cloth, canisters, plastic buckets, wooden boxes
• Parcels with protruding parts of any kind

For more information contact your GLS depot.
