Correct bags for Royal Mail 48

Post by austin587 »

Hi there,

We've just had our OBA account created and it's ready to go. I'm a bit confused on how to bag the parcels though. Do we need to use bags supplied by Royal Mail (these didn't arrive with the rest of the stationery)? Or can we use normal black bin liner type bags and such?

Thanks in advance.

If they are being collected ask the driver for some.

If you are taking them to a Post Office then they should have some.

Black bin bags would be a No - they won't survive the general handling as they progress through the Mail Centre and they'll just be thrown away anyway.
