Postal services next week-some PostShop/Kiwibank stores open
New Zealand Post Services Update
Postal services next week, some PostShop/Kiwibank stores already open
Friday 25 February 2011
New Zealand Post will resume partial mail services to earthquake-affected areas in Christchurch from Tuesday 1 March while some PostShop/Kiwibank stores are already open.
Mail processing is about to resume, while posties will be helping with reconnaissance in accessible areas to help establish where mail can be picked up from and delivered to from next Tuesday.
While the Christchurch Mail Processing Centre escaped the quake relatively unscathed, delivery capability will be dependent on what areas are safe and cleared for access, and staff availability.
New Zealand Post is offering free mail redirection for residential customers in quake-affected areas. Further details are available on www.nzpost.co.nz or call the customer service centre on 0800 501 501.
A total of 12 PostShop/Kiwibank stores are open. Updates will be posted in the New Zealand Post website.
Courier services in parts of the quake-affected areas are set to resume next week as well. The Pace urgent courier service has been providing transportation for emergency services through the week, including carrying blood products, and radio equipment for Civil Defence.
