Can anyone advise me on the safest way to receive a parcel from in this case the UK? Should I organise the courier from Colombia? Would that make any difference to the "final mile" of the delivery?
Thanks, Howard.

Hi Howard, if you use an International Courier it will make no difference which end of the line you organise it from, it will arrive on time, just make sure that you insist that a landline and mobile number are included on the label, so they can contact you to arrange delivery.

Also if you have not already received a quote, expect it to make a big hole in your wallet!
