I would recommend UPS company. I have used them a number of times both in the UK and for sending parcels to Spain.
I use them usually to escape the trouble of travelling with a large suitcase. Getting it to the airport, checking in and then queuing for it at the other end is so much bother. The courier picks it up from my home in UK, I travel to Spain the following day and the parcel is at my door in Spain in 3 - 4 days.
If anything, UPS charge less than Easyjet - I paid ab. £20 incl insurance.

We have a box coming this week from the UK to Spain using ipost parcels. The box weighs 17 kilos and we took extra insurance to cover up to £500. The cost was £26. We have used them on many occassions and have been very happy. I’m sure they do Spain to UK. It usually takes about 5 working days.

Has anyone used Myhermes from Spain? If so, where are they located? Also, how would I contact UPS from Torrevieja? I would definitely use a courier to carry my possessions to and from Spain, Easyjet have now increased their charges and are far too expensive.
