[Busmanagers] Mail Delivery to schools

[Harvey, Graham G]

Vikki,
 
Australia Post has given you misleading information.  If you cancel your
PO Box they will deliver to your premises via the postman doing their
normal delivery round, but you must have a letter box (although some
posties will bring it in).  If there are large items they will be
delivered by a contractor.  There are no guarantees re delivery time.
 
The fee that you have been quoted is if they do a direct delivery to
you, i.e. a postal worker would drop off a mail tub about 9:30 or so.
It is a personal delivery service many larger companies use.

Isn't free mail delivery in the Australia Post charter? I can remember
when we had 2 mail deliveries a day by a postman with a whistle.

(And milk delivered, bread delivered etc - I'll just keep reminiscing
and showing my age)

Hi all 

 

Can anyone please help.  We are a school with a post office box where
mail is collected daily.  We would now prefer to have our mail delivered
directly to the school premises.    However on ringing Australia Post
today to enquire about the mail being delivered to the school we were
informed that it would cost us $11 per day.

 

Has anyone else encountered this problem with Australia Post.  We don't
believe that we should pay for delivery.  

Any suggestions would be appreciated
