How do I send a parcel

If i’m returning a parcel that ways a literal 18 grams which delivery service is it best to do it with?
id rather drop it at a postbox or store than then come pick it up and i’m not sure if some services have a minimum weight for their parcels

If it's the sort of thing that would fit in a padded envelope without the risk of getting damaged, you could probably send it as a "large letter" rather than as a parcel. You can find the postage rates at https://send.royalmail.com/

If you need "proof of posting" then you'll need to drop the item off at a Post Office

There is no minimum weight for parcels. The packaging is likely to weigh more than the item. I would go for a padded envelope in a postbox or the Post Office. You can weigh and print postage labels at home. Royal Mail Special Delivery is an excellent service for next day tracked delivery and insurance. A bit more expensive mind.
