Hi everyone!
I was wondering if anyone in Izmir has had experience sending important documents to the USA. Which express service is the most reliable?
I read that DHL is the best. What about UPS? Are there others?
Last question - Is there one in Urla or in Guzelbahce-Izmir?
I've been searching and they're either in Konak, Alsancak, or Bornova. Thanks, 'Rita'

go with the Fedex. All MNG Kargo local couriers prepare fedex shipments.

click "harita" for map.

the URLA office is as follows:
Hacıisa Mah. 75.Yıl Cumhuriyet Cad. No:47/B Urla/İZMİR
0232 754 77 89 - 0232 754 77 90

The smallest envelop will cost like 120 TL and be delivered in 3-4 days. Almost same for the smallest parcel.

Thanks for your information. I had a bad experience, well , let's say a very expensive experience. I don't think I'll ever use them
even though the expenses and expectations started in the USA, at Federal Express, which is supposed to provide door-to-door service. On the contrary, I had to pick up my own two packages at the Izmir airport and pay over a 200 dollars in addition to the 500 dollars I paid in the states. I think UPS and DHL provide must better service, and you know that you don't have to pay additional sums.
