TLDR : Answer Summary
A UK DTV holder is looking for a reliable courier service to ship two medium boxes of work and personal items to Thailand, inquiring about FedEx, DHL, and Parcel Force. However, community members warn against using any courier due to high costs and strict customs regulations, suggesting that purchasing a business class seat might be a better option for extra baggage.

Don't do it. They are all expensive and rip you off on import charges. Thai customs are also very strict. Have a look at booking a business class seat. The extra baggage allowance may be enough for you.
