Can anyone recommend a shipping company that ships from Bangkok to Koh Phangan?

Thanks, spike

For overnight delivery of medium to largish boxes/parcels, I recommend the govt local bus - terminal just inland from Bantai pier.

Thanks, Jose. We need to ship around 50 medium boxes from Bangkok to Phangan. Do you think the local govt bus has the facilities to do that? do you have a contact phone for them in Bangkok?

Its the 999 Govt Bus, spike. 02-894 6122 ext 5 is the number I have for Bangkok. If that doesn't work, the Koh P number is 077-238-507 or 077-238-762

Try the wholesale-office in the back of Big-A supermarket. Sometimes they do things like that.

Spike, it's probably best to deal directly with the Bangkok office, as the local KPG office (also 086 279 3561) often doesn't issue receipts and this could result in a higher chance of goods sent being "lost" in transit.

Big A's wholesale office has now moved into the main supermarket area at the front right.

Limpipong is (finally) moving next door soon to bigger premises.

Big A's wholesale prices are still generally better than Tesco's, but I don't see their retail prices coming down to levels that will take customers away from Tesco.
