Does royal mail come on sunday

In the United Kingdom, Royal Mail's standard delivery services do not operate on Sundays. However, there are some exceptions and additional services that may be available on Sundays, depending on the location and type of service. Here are some details:

  1. Standard Delivery: Royal Mail's standard delivery services, including First Class and Second Class mail, do not operate on Sundays. This means that if you send a letter or parcel on a Saturday, it will not be delivered until the next working day (Monday).
  2. Special Delivery: Royal Mail's Special Delivery service, which guarantees next-day delivery by 1 pm, is available on Saturdays, but not on Sundays.
  3. Sunday Delivery: In some areas, Royal Mail offers Sunday delivery for certain services, such as Special Delivery and Signed For services. However, this is not a standard service and is only available in specific locations, typically in urban areas.
  4. Parcelforce: Parcelforce, a subsidiary of Royal Mail, offers Sunday delivery for some of its services, including 24-hour and 48-hour tracked services. However, this is not a standard service and is only available in certain areas.
  5. Private Courier Services: Some private courier services, such as Hermes, DHL, and UPS, may offer Sunday delivery for an additional fee. However, this is not a standard service and is only available in certain areas.

It's always best to check with Royal Mail or the specific courier service you are using to confirm their Sunday delivery policies and availability in your area.
