Hermes, one of the UK’s leading consumer delivery specialists, has announced the last recommended posting days to ensure presents are delivered in time for Christmas 2021.  

They are:

  • Monday 20th December. For customers who want a Hermes courier to collect a parcel from them.
  • Tuesday 21st December (12 noon). For customers sending presents from Hermes’ nationwide network of ParcelShops or lockers, using the standard service.
  • Wednesday 22nd December (12 noon). For customers sending presents from one of Hermes’ nationwide network of ParcelShops or lockers, using the next day service.

The company has also urged customers to let their recipients know that there is a parcel on the way by including the recipients email address when sending a parcel. This is particularly important when posting items close to the last dates, so that recipients can receive notifications and arrange to be available for delivery or divert their parcel to a safe place, neighbour or ParcelShop.
