Mail and other postal items
The UK offers a full Poste Restante (To Be Collected) service through the network of Post Offices.
Obviously while this is fine should you be planning on a visit to a static location, when out cruising the British Waterways network it isn't necessarily very easy to know where you're going to be at any one point in time - or how long you're going to stay there.
Therefore Poste Restante is possibly not the solution should you need to have mail or other postal items delivered to you in the UK.
Sheffield Narrowboats are more than happy for you to have mail delivered to our address. We have developed a network of boatyards, chandlers, pubs and friendly lock keepers to whom we can forward your mail, either as it arrives, or in bulk at set periods.
We do not charge for this service. All you pay is the cost of the postage.
(Sheffield Narrowboats Limited cannot accept any liability for items of post that are lost or damaged. We endeavour to exercise a strict duty of care, however circumstances out of our control may lead to damage, loss or delays. We are happy to use Special Delivery, where valuable items must be signed for upon receipt, however this is totally dependent upon the goodwill of the recipient accepting the mail on your behalf).
