BTB Mailflight is part of Europe's second largest postal operator, so once we have picked and packed an order we are able to offer a wide range of UK and international postal and courier services to get it to your customer, whether that's a consumer or business address, in the UK or overseas.
We are able to offer a range of postal services and packet and parcel services including signed-for and trackable options.
Our mail order distribution prices are often what makes our overall mail order fulfilment solution the most cost effective, as postage is typically one of the most costly parts of running a mail order business.
Samples of our cost savings:
- A 2 day postal service that can be up to 10% cheaper than Royal Mail's 2nd Class Post!*
- A 2 to 3 day tracked parcel service from £2.27!*
- International packet services that can be 50% cheaper than Royal Mail!*
Standard UK mail order distribution
Royal Mail is no longer the only option for delivering packets in the UK. We provide our own Downstream Access solution for packet deliveries which can provide substantial savings over some Royal Mail prices, up to 10% cheaper than Royal Mail Second Class!
We do of course also handle the full range of Royal Mail services for packet and parcel distribution, and because we mail such high volumes through these services we achieve discounts too:
- Special Delivery
- Registered Post
- Packet Post
- Standard packet tariff
- Tracked
International mail order distribution
We have been one of the UK's leading international mailing houses for over 25 years and in March 2008 we became part of the La Poste Group (Europe's second largest postal and fulfilment group) so we provide one of the widest range of international mailing services and options in the market.
Our international postage prices are some of the lowest available, and our IMDAS Accreditiation proves that our services are reliable.

M-Bags: low cost international mail weighing 2KG - 11KG
Normal international mail is designed for up to two kilos per piece, so some companies will automatically recommend a courier service for heavier mail, however BTB Mailflight's M-Bag service is sometimes a more suitable option. With M-Bags you can place as much mail as you can for one address into our specifically designed bags with a weight limit of eleven kilos. M-Bags are individually priced and are much more cost effective, as there are lower sortation and delivery costs.
