Delivery service DPD has temporarily stopped delivering to a number of areas in Wales due to ongoing Royal Mail industrial action. There will be disruption to the company's next-day delivery service, which will impact some postcodes in areas like Cardiff, Blaenau Gwent and Chepstow for up to two days.
Royal Mail workers are striking due to a long-running dispute over pay, jobs and working conditions. More backlogs are expected to build up as more industrial action will take place in the days before Christmas. Workers are expected to next strike on Wednesday, December 14.
A DPD statement said: "We are experiencing short delays to our next-day delivery service in a small number of locations, as a result of the industrial action at the Royal Mail, which has had a huge knock-on effect across the entire industry.
