Royal Mail has this month rolled out a brand-new delivery service, which will hopefully slash carbon emissions across the board - as well as save customers time.
The national postal service will, as of yesterday, automatically attempt to redeliver missed parcels the next working day, rather than sending them straight to the depot.
Prior to the new system, posties would deliver small parcels alongside mail, while larger items would be specifically delivered by a dedicated force on a strict route. If a punter missed their post for whatever reason, they would be left a 'Something for you' card, reminding them that their parcel had been taken to a local depot for collection.
