Identical boxes and different-sized boxes are handled two different ways on the booking form — knowing which one you need avoids a wrong quote.
"I need to send several parcels" usually means one of two different bookings. The first is several identical boxes — same dimensions, same weight — going to the same address. The second is several different boxes, each its own size and weight, going together in one shipment. The booking form handles these differently, and using the wrong one gives an inaccurate quote.
Both are real, supported ways to book more than one parcel in a single order — this isn't a workaround, it's how the form is built to handle exactly this.
Fill in the size and weight for one of the identical boxes, as you would for a single parcel.
Increase the quantity field to the number of identical boxes you're sending — the quote will scale to reflect all of them.
Check the order summary reflects the number of boxes you actually intend to send, not just one.
Dimensions, weight and value for the first box.
Every box with different dimensions or weight needs its own entry — this is what lets the quote price each one correctly rather than averaging them.
All the parcel lines in one order travel to the same destination address as a single shipment.
It isn't a way to ship to two different addresses in one order — each order has one destination.
Splitting a single large, heavy item into several boxes to avoid a size or weight limit doesn't necessarily cost less, and can complicate a damage claim if the pieces are interdependent.
Each parcel line is priced on its own dimensions and weight — combining several boxes doesn't average their cost.
It scales the quote to the number of identical boxes entered, priced consistently with a single box of those dimensions and weight.
No — a single order goes to a single destination address. Separate destinations need separate orders.
It's still good practice, particularly for anything valuable enough that you'd want to trace a specific box if only one arrived damaged.
This isn't fixed in advance across every route and service — add what you need and confirm the total in the order summary before paying, or check with support if you're planning an unusually large shipment.
Add each parcel with its real dimensions for a quote that prices every box correctly.
