SHIPPING INSURANCE
When shipping with Eurosender, basic insurance is automatically included in the price. For extra protection, we also offer additional insurance with higher coverage at very low rates.
Always make sure you protect your guitar properly in its original case or box when shipping it internationally and keep the original invoice to service as proof of value. When shipping an electronic instrument, please consider that the insurance may not apply for used or second-hand devices.
NEED MORE INFORMATION?
The cost for shipping a guitar internationally depends on your pick-up and delivery destination as well as the service selected.
Using the Standard Service is the cheapest solution for shipping a guitar abroad, as long as your item fits into the dimensions limit of this service.
Yes, absolutely. Many of our clients use our shipping solutions to send their guitars to an authorised repair shop overseas.
If you will be using a parcel shipping service to transport your items on the relocation, we recommend following our instructions described above and pack your guitar the same way as you would for shipping.
There are several courier companies that offer shipping services for guitars, including DHL, DPD, GLS, UPS, and many more. Instead of wasting time getting quotes with each courier individually, you can simply use Eurosender, and our system will make this comparison for you!
When booking a guitar shipping with Eurosender, basic insurance is already included in the price, so you do not have to worry about paying extra for that.
The best shipping box to use when sending a guitar by post or courier is the original case that came with the item. The original box has a tailor-made size and will offer better protection to your item.
However, if you do not have it anymore, you can use any other cardboard box that fits your guitar comfortably with space for cushioning.
Clients shipping to countries that experience below freezing temperatures during winter should be extra careful when packing their guitars for shipping because this instrument is delicate and can be sensitive to extremely low temperatures.
