How long will it take for my parcel to be delivered?
When shipping with ipostparcels, your package will head off to its destination pretty much immediately.
Choosing our next day delivery will mean you can send your parcel economically, quickly and safely. Once we've collected your parcel, it will begin its journey the same day, travelling to one of our many depots around the UK for sorting and on to its destination, whether that’s in the
UK or
Ireland,
Europe or
Worldwide.
Guaranteed next day delivery - Need your parcel to arrive as soon as possible? With next day delivery as an option, you can book your parcel in to reach its UK destination the next working day, available for delivery on Monday-Friday, arriving between 8am and 6pm.
What happens if I order on a Friday? - If your parcel is collected or dropped at a depot on a Friday, it will usually be delivered the next working day – Monday. But you can easily upgrade your delivery, so it will still arrive at the weekend, on the Saturday. This is a great option for those more urgent packages. It's worth noting, though, that overnight delivery is not available in some remote parts of the UK, but you will be able to determine this when making a booking.
I need a parcel to arrive within a specific time period - If you need to ensure your delivery arrives at a specific time that's no problem either. Guaranteed time slots can be requested on next day deliveries; we’re able to offer slots before 9am, 10.30am or noon with just a small charge. Just make sure you fill out the appropriate part of the booking form to specify you’d like a Saturday delivery.
International delivery times - Parcels making their way overseas will be delivered either via road or air, so understandably will take longer than a day, meaning next day or Saturday delivery is not available on international services.
We are proud to offer some of the quickest delivery times around though, and our express service means we can ship to many countries in as little two or three days.
With the assistance of our trusted international partner, your parcel will be delivered to its final destination in safe hands.
We ship to over 160 countries around the world so delivery times will vary, depending on just where your parcel is going.
Things to remember:
-
You must select the Saturday delivery option when making your booking which costs an additional £4.
-
Your parcels will need to be collected or dropped off on Friday along with the Saturday option selected and paid for as part of your booking.
-
For collection on Friday, you must book no later than Thursday, before midnight
-
Unfortunately, we do not currently offer parcel collections on a Saturday, nor do we deliver or collect parcels on Sundays or Bank Holidays – but that’s true of the majority of parcel delivery companies.
So, whatever you're sending across the UK, you can be assured that our competitive rates and quick delivery times will mean that your parcel will be making its way to your chosen destination with reliable ease.
