Last Posting Dates for Christmas
Christmas is on the frost-speckled horizon, which means it’s time to start sending your gifts.
But if you’ve not yet compiled your Christmas list, you might like to know about
our couriers' last posting dates for Christmas delivery.
Save the Dates
As always, we’ve produced a comprehensive list of all the last posting dates for you to stick in your calendar. These dates are advisory, but we’d recommending sending at least a few days before to guarantee your parcels are delivered before the big day.
Ways to send
Both collection and drop-off courier services are available in the run up to Christmas. However, since courier networks have to handle an extra surge of deliveries in December, collections times can sometimes be affected.
To ensure your parcels get to the courier in plenty of time, we advise selecting a drop-off service for your Christmas delivery.
Find Your Nearest Drop-Off Point
Left it late?
Let’s face it; some of us just aren’t great at planning ahead.
Luckily, we offer a range of express and timed delivery services in the weeks running up to Christmas. That way if you find that time is running out, you can book a speedier service to ensure your loved ones don’t miss out on Christmas morning.
