Does royal mail work on christmas day

Royal Mail's services are affected by Christmas Day, which falls on December 25th every year. Here's what you can expect:

No mail delivery on Christmas Day: Royal Mail does not deliver mail on Christmas Day. This means that any mail sent on December 24th (Christmas Eve) will not be delivered until December 26th (Boxing Day) or later.

Special arrangements for Christmas Eve: Royal Mail operates a reduced service on Christmas Eve (December 24th). They will still collect and deliver mail, but with a reduced workforce and limited hours. This means that some mail may not be delivered until December 26th or later.

Special arrangements for New Year's Day: Royal Mail also operates a reduced service on New Year's Day (January 1st). They will still collect and deliver mail, but with a reduced workforce and limited hours.

Online shopping and parcel delivery: If you're expecting a parcel delivery on Christmas Day, it's unlikely to arrive. Royal Mail's parcel delivery services are also affected by the reduced workforce and limited hours on Christmas Eve and New Year's Day. You can check the Royal Mail website for updates on parcel delivery times and any changes to their services.

Special services and collections: Some special services, such as Special Delivery Guaranteed and Signed For, may not be available on Christmas Day or may have limited hours. You should check with Royal Mail for specific details on these services.

It's always a good idea to check the Royal Mail website or contact them directly for the latest information on their services and delivery times during the holiday period.
