Are there any royal mail collections on a sunday

Traditionally Sunday has been seen as a day of rest by Christians, with the practice adopted in the UK. However, as the years have gone by, more businesses have started to provide their services on a Sunday due to popular demand.

The Royal Mail operates on a traditional schedule of Monday to Saturday, generally not delivering Mail on a Sunday, closing with most banks. Since the Royal Mail has become a publicly traded entity, there have been some exceptions to the rule however.

The new move saw only a small portion of roughly branches open from 12pm until 4pm, but was for collection rather than deliveries. In the London area, Sunday post seemed to be on the verge of reality, as the service decided it would deliver packages. The decision was made in light of the steadily rising popularity of online retailers Amazon seeing millions of extra packages coming in every day. Now, there is still no official policy from the Royal Mail about deliveries on Sunday, but some people will get their packages.

When you'll get your post Your post should be delivered by 3pm if you live in a town or city, or 4pm if you live in a rural area.

If you have to collect post from a customer service point Check the opening hours on the Royal Mail website before you collect your post. When your post will be collected Your local post box collection time depends on where you live.

The latest collection from a post office is usually when it closes. Royal Mail Telephone: Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm Saturday, 8am to 1pm Sunday, 9am to 2pm Calls to this number cost up to 9p a minute from a landline, and between 3p and 45p a minute from a mobile.
