Ahead of the holiday season this year, Norway Post announces that they are expecting a historic number of packages. Therefore, they have increased with 600 more people for Christmas.
– There are many reasons to believe that we are entering a period where we will see packages that we have never seen before, says press manager Kenneth Tjønndal Pettersen in Posten to NTB.
This means that it may be a good idea to be earlier when sending Christmas packages this year so that they arrive on time. But what deadlines should you meet?
Waiting for record progress
Posten deadlines
If you are sending Christmas cards or Christmas gifts to someone who lives in other parts of the country, you still have a lot of time.
According to the Norway Post website, there are normal deadlines if you are sending letters, Christmas cards, small letter packages, and larger packages in Norway this year.
However, due to the additional amount of Christmas greetings / packages at Christmas, you need to calculate a few days in advance, they write on their website.
If you are shipping abroad, it is a little different. Norway Post has a good tool that makes it easy to see deadlines by country. For example, if you send small packages to the United States, the deadline is already December 6.
However, due to the corona pandemic, it cannot be mailed to all countries. See the Norway Post overview here.
End of daily mail deliveries
PostNord
If you are sending Christmas gifts with PostNord, it is recommended that you send them no later than December 11, they write on their website.
It is true that PostNord distributes packages until Christmas Eve, December 23rd.
– We do not deliver any more packages on Christmas Eve, but our Collection Points are open for you to pick up packages at. 08.00-12.00, the company writes.
Order deadlines in online stores
If you want to make sure that the Christmas gifts you buy online actually arrive on time, you should check the deadline for ordering at the online stores that you are considering buying from.
Generally, the deadline is around December 15 (we will update the case with the dates as they are released).
See also how long you have to exchange Christmas gifts at several of the big online stores, which have different terms for open purchase.
One last tip: Many packages and letters do not reach their recipients because they are incorrectly marked. Therefore, remember to write the correct and complete name and address on your letters and packages.
