According to Royal Mail's official website, Saturday is not considered a working day for most of their services. They operate on a Monday to Friday schedule, with the exception of some special services and arrangements.
Here are some specific details:
- Standard Delivery: Royal Mail's standard delivery service, which includes First Class and Second Class mail, is not available on Saturdays.
- Special Delivery: Special Delivery, which provides guaranteed next-day delivery, is available on Saturdays, but only for certain postcodes and at an additional cost.
- Saturday Delivery: Royal Mail offers a Saturday delivery service for some businesses and individuals, but this is not a standard service and requires a special arrangement.
- Post Office Counters: Post Office counters, which are operated by independent retailers, may offer Saturday opening hours, but this is not a guarantee and varies depending on the location.
It's worth noting that Royal Mail's delivery times and services may vary depending on the location and the type of mail being sent. If you're unsure about the delivery schedule for a specific item, it's always best to check with Royal Mail or the sender directly.
