Post Office Customers - Help us to help you
We are rapidly approaching our busiest time of the year in the Post Office & there are a few things that can help our peak times run smoother
* Busiest times - generally Monday is our busiest day and lunchtime 11.45am - 1pm tends to be the busiest time every day, followed by 'just after school' 3.30pm. We have also seen an increase of customers at the end of the day around 5pm.
If you don't want to queue - please avoid these times
* Come prepared - please make sure any QR codes or barcodes on devices are downloaded or screenshot - there is a notoriously bad signal in the Village - this is our biggest cause of delays in service.
* Please check return instructions, especially for Amazon & check how your parcel needs to be presented to us.
* Please follow signage in store to queue the correct way, this avoids confusion & delay as people reach the counter.
Please remember, we are a single counter Post Office & while we try our very best to serve quickly and efficiently, some transactions do take longer than others. From the start of November we see an increase of International post, these are time consuming to process and may result in longer queue times.
Thank you 😊
