How to Ship Your Car Parts Outside the UK with CarsBits
At CarsBits, we’re dedicated to providing quality used car parts to our customers across the UK. As our operations are UK-based, most of our shipping is tailored to domestic deliveries. However, we understand the need for international shipping, and we’re here to help guide you through the process if you’re outside the UK.
For our international customers, we do not ship directly to locations outside the UK. However, you can arrange transportation of your purchased items using third-party shipping companies that specialize in forwarding packages to your destination. These companies can collect your parcel from us and handle the logistics to deliver it to your location.
Please note that we only ship items under 30kg and 1 meter in length and we do not post window glasses.
If an item is marked for collection, please contact us to arrange a suitable time and receive the collection address.
Below, we’ve provided a step-by-step guide to ensure a smooth process:
Step 1: Place Your Order with CarsBits
Browse our inventory of quality used car parts and place your order on our website. During the checkout process, provide a UK address for delivery. This will typically be the address of the third-party shipping company you’ve chosen.
Step 2: Choose a Shipping Forwarding Company

These companies will act as intermediaries, ensuring your parcel is safely transported from the UK to your country.
