Over the Olympic period from 23rd July to 17th September, due to transport restrictions, there will be slight changes to Royal Mail’s services.
Post may arrive later than usual in the London area since it will take longer to collect and deliver mail as a result of expected interruptions to the transport system.
Royal Mail’s next day delivery items sent to London will not be guaranteed to arrive before 1pm. For this period, next day delivery items will arrive the next day but not before a guaranteed time.
Items going to other parts of the UK via special next day delivery will still arrive before 1pm the following working day.
For the avoidance of doubt, orders received by 4.00 pm Monday to Friday will still be delivered the next day regardless of which part of the country you live in; only London will not have a time guaranteed service.
