Do evri use royal mail
Evri (formerly known as Hermes) is a parcel delivery company that operates in the UK and uses a network of couriers and depots to deliver parcels. While Evri does not exclusively use Royal Mail, they do have a partnership with Royal Mail to use their infrastructure and services in certain circumstances.
Here are some ways in which Evri uses Royal Mail:
- Last-mile delivery: Evri uses Royal Mail's last-mile delivery network to deliver parcels to customers' doors. This means that Royal Mail's postmen and women may be delivering Evri parcels in certain areas.
- Depot network: Evri uses Royal Mail's depot network to sort and process parcels. This allows Evri to leverage Royal Mail's existing infrastructure and reduce its own costs.
- Special services: Evri uses Royal Mail's special services, such as tracked and signed-for delivery, to provide additional security and tracking for its customers.
- Peak season support: During peak periods, such as Christmas, Evri may use Royal Mail's additional capacity to help manage the increased volume of parcels.
However, it's worth noting that Evri also has its own fleet of vehicles and a network of depots, which it uses to deliver parcels independently of Royal Mail. In fact, Evri has been expanding its own network in recent years to reduce its reliance on Royal Mail and improve its delivery times and services.
So, while Evri does use Royal Mail in certain circumstances, it is not a exclusive user of Royal Mail's services.
