TLDR : Answer Summary
The most recommended and cost-effective way to send a 10kg package to Thailand is to bring it with you as extra baggage when you fly. Several commenters advise against shipping due to potential customs issues and added costs. Some users suggest alternatives, like buying clothes and electrical goods in Thailand instead of bringing them from the UK.

Hong Kong Post works well. 10kg will cost from HKD $290 to $617 (all with package tracking), depending on how fast you need it to be delivered.

don't bother mate.. Really. If you must, take as extra baggage. But cost.. Inc tax and hassle? Not worth it.

Not really what you're asking but it is an advice group. Bin most of your clothes before you come.

Bring it with you, paying for extra baggage if needed. Not worth the risk of it getting caught up in customs with a duty due if you ship it.

make sure your electrical stuff will work over here and yes bring it on the plane.
