Royal Mail pickup from home

When buying RM 48 parcel label online does anyone know what the cut off point is "timewise" for next day pick up?

Booked a parcel in last night and was too late for today pick up.

Have booked collections up to near Midnight for next day collection but assume it varies from area to area.

I often arrange collection quite late, I recall printing labels and arranging collection (I use collection for everything including letters and large letters) and suddenly at around 11.30 pm it switched to the day after . As Rantband says, I suspect it varies from area to area. 

My collection varies as well, so if the system knows there are 6 large parcels in the collection then they usually send a van either very early or very late. If it’s mainly letters and large letters then the postman takes them. Very often the postman knocks to collect the post, then several hours later (7pm one night) a van turns up a bit cross that items have already gone.

For us (we're in central England) it's midnight.

I can arrange next day collections up to midnight as well.

Thanks everyone!  I think I bought my label past midnight so I suppose it makes sense 11.30 - 12pm.
