Surface mail service in Portugal?
I'm living in Braga. I'm going to send quite a lot of things back home early next year.
However, when I look at the CTT website, they only offer air mail service for international parcels.
So, I want to know any companies provide surface mail service? I believe surface mail would be much cheaper than air mail.

Is 'back home' the UK?
If you are looking for mail service to UK then I believe mail services across the EU are now harmonised - it makes no difference to the cost whether you choose surface or air. Use the standard Portugal PTT.
For parcel services then you should find plenty of courier/parcel service through google/yellow pages and you can get quotes.

I'm looking for surface parcel service.
My home is in Australia, not UK.
So I believe surface will be much cheaper than air.

If you have a lot, more than 50kg or so, you're likely better using a freight forwarder. there's a system for sharing + consolidating container shipments.
Search for "part container load".
