Posting for Christmas.

860 Posts


I'm a postie and every year we get cards and presents that we can't deliver or more importantly return to the sender. If you are unsure of the address please, please put your return address on the back. Especially if children have sent the card to Grand parents.
I remember I had one letter addressed to Nanny and Grampy, The Road, The Town, no postcode (not real address just for this post). With no return address. The problem was this Road had numbers from 2-346 and I had to return it.
We also get parcels wrapped in one sheet of flimsy Christmas paper, clothes especially jumpers, fleeces scrunched down as tight as possible and again wrapped in a sheet of brown paper. Many times it has come open and we bag it but we don't know if anything is missing.
This is an update. Please seal you Christmas cards, don't tuck the flap in because they can come open in the sorting machines.
Please help us to help you.

So I'd just say that if you are attaching labels, please ensure they are firmly stuck.
