Tube to the USA cost pls , by chrispa on Nov 20, 2020 9:05:05 GMT 1, depends on the tube size and value...
if the tube is under 90cm (and tube length plus twice diameter is less than 104cm) AND value under £250 then royal mail is the best IMO and will cost around £30

Parcelforce’s compensation doesn’t cover art when it’s leaving the UK. They still allow you to book extra compensation cover but in the terms and conditions art isn’t included.

£250 is the max with Royal Mail
you need a courier service or Parcelforce
Expect it to cost around £100 !!

I have had to claim for art that went missing that went out of the UK and they paid up

“Works of art
Works of art cannot be exported to certain destinations on the globalpriority and globalvalue services, so please check our country directory before sending. Works of art are excluded from protection for loss and damage with globalexpress although they can be sent using this service.”
It could be where the tube I was sending was to large for Royal Mail so it was put on a Parcelforce shipment, but theoretically there the same company.

That's Parcelforce not Royal Mail
if you use Parcelforce global express artwork is covered

The quote I’ve quoted is in regards to Parcelforce globalexpress which states it isn’t covered..

Art is not covered under Global express
IT IS covered Global Priority and Global Value
Here is the link to the ParcelForce compensation guide that covers any exclusions
