Christmas Sending Cut-off Dates
End of Year Sending Deadlines
Due to the massive volume we are packaging and delivering right now we’ve reviewed our sending dates to increase the chance of your
Christmas freight and parcels arriving on time. We don’t want any disappointed relatives having to open their gifts after New Year do we?!
For International Parcels our overseas sending cut-off date is December 7th (Tuesday)
For parcels off to Aussie – December 10th (Friday)
New Zealand Metro areas – December 13th (Monday)
Intra-Island deliveries – December 13th (Monday)
Inter-Island deliveries – December 10th (Friday) budget service and December 17th (premium service)
Residential Deliveries – December 13th (Monday). Please allow more time for RURAL areas.
You can drop gifts off to our multiple service centres across the country or send or import items via our Online self-service platform if you don’t feel like negotiating the traffic and want to book & pay via your bed!
Note that due to the unpredictability of our freight network around the globe right now, we suggest that you send as early as possible and before the cut-off dates to avoid disappointed loved ones on Christmas day!
