Royal Mail Parcel Prices

The Royal Mail is introducing a wave of new-style parcel post boxes across Suffolk and Essex which means traders can send parcels 24/7.

Traders are now able to post parcels 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

These larger postboxes have wider apertures and a secure design and are intended for online customers who use the pre-paid postage system, to send or return their parcels seven days a week.

The launch of parcel postboxes is one of the biggest innovations in parcels since the launch of the parcel post in 1883, and is linked to the explosion of internet and web-based buying and selling in the UK.

Across the country 1,400 meter boxes are being converted to the new use.

This one is in Lloyds Avenue, Ipswich in the heart of the town centre and next to the Cornhill.

Small businesses, marketplace sellers and individuals will be able to use the boxes in the same way as they post a letter, so long as they pre-paid through the Royal Mail's Click & Drop labelling system.
