Is my parcel still moving as we speak?

Post by Letter Box »

Hello,

My parcel was dispatched yesterday and was last tracked at the South Midlands Mail Centre this morning at 9am. All I would like to know is whether my parcel is still moving as we speak and going to my nearest depot for Monday or is the parcel still in the Midlands and wont be moving until Monday?

I live in South West England.

Thanks!

It won't be moving tomorrow it being a Sunday - however the chances are excellent that it will get to the Delivery Office on Monday in time to go out.

Its even possible that it has moved already from that MC and has just not been scanned as its still on the lorry.

Just checked the tracking for my parcel, it shows its arrived at my near mail centre at 10am this morning and now on its way to my local delivery office! Surprised me for a Sunday.

It is normal for mail due for delivery on Monday to be sorted at the inward MC on sunday and then dispatched to DOs either in the evening or early monday morning.
