Can i arrange for royal mail.to.only deliver once a week

A clever question!

Unfortunately, Royal Mail does not offer a service that allows you to restrict deliveries to only once a week. Their standard delivery services, such as First Class and Second Class, aim to deliver mail and parcels as quickly as possible, usually within 1-2 working days for First Class and 2-3 working days for Second Class.

However, there are a few alternatives you could consider:

  1. Royal Mail's Special Delivery Guaranteed by 1pm service: This service guarantees delivery by 1 pm on the next working day. If you're not available to receive the delivery, you can arrange for it to be left with a neighbor or at a secure location.
  2. Royal Mail's Special Delivery Guaranteed by 9am service: This service guarantees delivery by 9 am on the next working day. This might be a good option if you're only available to receive deliveries early in the morning.
  3. Royal Mail's Saturday Delivery service: If you're not available to receive deliveries during the week, you can opt for Saturday delivery. This service is available for an additional fee.
  4. Consider using a parcel locker service: Companies like Hermes, DHL, and UPS offer parcel locker services, where you can collect your packages at a time that suits you. These services often have extended opening hours, making it easier to collect your packages.

Keep in mind that these services may incur additional costs, and you should check the Royal Mail website or contact their customer service to confirm availability and pricing in your area.
