I know Royal Mail delivers 13 billion letters per year but my questions is how many parcels per year?.We got a bigger share of the market then Yodel etc?.

The surprising thing in that document is that they predict a decline in the parcels market as cheaper and cheaper 3d printers come online and/or get purchased for use at home.

We're forever seeing the vans of those seven competitors each delivering just 4.4% to 7.7% of parcels so they must cover many times more distance per parcel than we do.

I know it costs money but everyone is going around saying how doomed we are,but can't the cwu send something out to discard some of the stuff we read this week.Like the charts above etc most people log off at end of walk not when they return to office,lots are forced to work time because of lapse work.
