Royal Mail has shared a service update for this weekend (Saturday 23 and Sunday 24). Some parts of the UK are expected to be hit by postal delays.
The postal service told customers: “Weekend delivery and collection services are expected to take place on Saturday, September 23 and parcel deliveries on Sunday, September 24.”
Royal Mail urged customers to visit https://www.royalmail.com/services-near-you#/ for Customer Service Point opening times, in order to collect urgent items for which a ‘Something for you’ card has been left.
Regarding deliveries this weekend, Royal Mail stated: “Deliveries are operating as normal across the UK today. We aim to deliver to all addresses we have mail for, six days a week.
“In a small number of local offices, this may temporarily not be possible due to local issues such as high levels of sick absence, resourcing, or other local factors.

“We also provide targeted support to those offices to address their challenges and restore our service to the high standard our customers would normally receive.”
The postal service apologised for any inconvenience caused by delays and listed which offices are likely to be most impacted.
