How long is your contract for? It is normally available for posties with a contract longer than 3 months. You should get a high visibility vest pretty quickly and that is all. Don't rely on getting an ID card either as they seem as rare as hens teeth for newbies.

Get some decent walking boots or shoes. You will need them!
