Do royal mail attempt redelivery on the same day
According to Royal Mail's policy, they typically attempt redelivery on the next working day after the initial delivery attempt. However, this may vary depending on the specific circumstances and the type of service used.
Here are some general guidelines:
- Standard Delivery: If the item is not delivered on the first attempt, Royal Mail will attempt redelivery on the next working day.
- Special Delivery: If the item is not delivered on the first attempt, Royal Mail will attempt redelivery on the next working day, and if that fails, they will leave a card with instructions on how to arrange a redelivery or collect the item from a local post office.
- 1st Class and 2nd Class: If the item is not delivered on the first attempt, Royal Mail will attempt redelivery on the next working day, but this may not always be the case, as these services are not tracked and may be left at the recipient's address if they are not present.
It's worth noting that Royal Mail may not always attempt redelivery on the same day if:
- The item is being delivered to a business address, and the recipient is not available to sign for it.
- The item is being delivered to a residential address, and the recipient is not available to sign for it, but there is no safe place to leave the item.
- The item is being delivered to a remote or hard-to-reach location, and it's not feasible to attempt redelivery on the same day.
If you're concerned about the delivery of your item, you can contact Royal Mail's customer service team to track your item and request an update on the delivery status.
