Does Walmart deliver to the UK? (no, but the method is as follows)
Wal-Mart is the largest retail chain in the United States, selling more than 35 million products nationwide at reasonable prices.
However, if you live in the UK, you may see a product you want to buy on Walmart’s online marketplace. If this is the case, you might be wondering if Walmart delivers to the UK. Here’s what I found!
Does Walmart deliver to the UK?
Unfortunately, Walmart does not deliver to the UK. However, you can use package forwarding companies like Stackry, Shipito, and MyUS to ship your package anywhere in the UK for anywhere from $15 to over $100.
If you want to know more about local alternatives to Walmart in the UK, and the process of shipping Walmart items from the US to the UK, read on!
Why doesn’t Walmart ship to the UK?
Walmart does not ship to the UK as it does not ship anywhere outside the US. Its delivery network only serves local (US) customers.
How do you ship Walmart items from the US to the UK?
As Walmart does not ship directly to the UK, you will have to use a package forwarding company to ship your items from Walmart in the US to a UK address.
You can use any of the following package forwarding companies to provide this service:
- stacked
- Shopping and Shipping
- Shipito
- through the box
- my america
- Borderlinx
- new york box
- boat 7
To determine which one is best for you, you can compare each company’s prices and customer reviews from their websites and public forums.
Once you have selected your preferred shipping company, here are the steps to follow to ship your items to the UK:
- When checking out from Walmart Online Marketplace, please enter the address of the shipping company’s warehouse (provided by the company), not your US home address.
- After the package arrives at the warehouse, the shipping company will show you a picture of the product. Before shipping, make sure the item is not damaged at this stage.
- Select Shipping Package. Most companies offer a variety of combinations, from economical but slow to expensive but quick. Standard delivery times range from 7 to 21 days.
- After paying to the shipping company, please write down the waybill number. You’ll use it to keep track of orders and need it in case of delays or other issues.
- Now you just have to track the items and receive them by the estimated delivery date at the UK address you provided to the shipping company.
How much does it cost to ship Walmart items to the UK?
While each package forwarding company charges different fees for their services, you can expect to pay anywhere in the range of 15-100+ US Dollars (USD) to have your shipment shipped to the UK.
Most companies will have a shipping calculator that you can use to figure out the exact amount you will need to pay. Note that the heavier the package and the shorter the delivery time you choose, the higher the shipping cost.
As a result, you could end up paying more on shipping than you intended to save when ordering from Walmart, so you should be aware of that.
Are there any Walmart stores in the UK?
There are no Walmart stores in the whole of the UK. However, from 1999 to 2020, Walmart owned ASDA, the UK’s second largest supermarket chain.
ASDA offers similar products and services to Walmart, so it is the closest alternative to Walmart in the UK. Other options include stores like Tesco Extra, Primark and Shein, which have stores across the UK.

in conclusion
So while Walmart offers reliable, fast and efficient delivery in the US, it unfortunately does not deliver to the UK. However, Walmart customers residing in the US can use a US-based forwarder to have items purchased at a Walmart store delivered to a UK address by paying for shipping.
