Posting honey

[Rock_Chick]

I've seen them somewhere,but now they seem to have vanished,
I'm looking for polystyrene jar boxes,the ones that fit 1lb jars for posting.
I've checked t****es site they don't seem to have them.
Or if anyone can give any ideas on posting jars.
Thanks.

IMO the polystyrene boxes are a waste of money and not very good for the environment.
A standard double-walled cardboard box with shredded cardboard (a la T***nes) as filler material does the job just fine and can all be re-used or recycled at the other end.

Bit of bubble wrap and a jiffy bag has done me ok so far including posting abroad.

Posting honey abroad is surely illegal....if bringing it in is (which it is, IYKWIM)?

Better tell that to Rowse and everyone else selling non UK honey.

No law against sending it to the US at least or having honey sent from the US.

There are some convoluted rules around sending it for commercial purposes to the us but nothing around sending it as a gift.

You can send to Australia, but you do have to fill in some forms, and fees are paid if you are commercial, however as gifts - it's free.
