With the festive season fast approaching and online shopping on the rise, Australia Post has announced that they will be reintroducing weekend deliveries. This service will be available in all major metropolitan areas as well as selected regional cities and towns, making sure that parcels arrive in time for Christmas. Executive General Manager Gary Starr emphasized the importance of weekend delivery in ensuring that all customers receive their parcels before Christmas Day.
In addition to weekend deliveries, Australia Post is also expanding the number of 24/7 parcel lockers across the country. With the holiday season just around the corner, the company understands the urgency of delivering parcels on time. Starr stated that bringing back weekend deliveries not only meets the demand of customers but also aims to make holiday shopping easier for everyone. Preparation for the busy peak season has been ongoing throughout the year with the recruitment of thousands of new team members to ensure smooth operations.
Weekend deliveries will be in place until Christmas, although the volume of parcels may affect this timeline. In order to guarantee timely delivery, parcels should be sent by Friday 20 December for most destinations within Australia. If using Express Post, the deadline is extended to Monday 23 December. Customers sending to or from Western Australia and the Northern Territory are advised to allow for a few extra days in transit.
Australia Post's dedication to providing efficient and reliable services during the holiday season is evident through their efforts to meet customer demands and their continuous expansion of resources. With the reintroduction of weekend deliveries and the increase in 24/7 parcel lockers, the company hopes to make this busy shopping period as stress-free as possible for all their valued customers. So, get ready to send off those Christmas gifts and rest assured that they will arrive on time with Australia Post.
