Parcel delivery can do better. Discuss

I’m waiting on approx 6 packages (clothes, supplements, food pantry items, kitchen, medicinal supplies etc…).

I’m seeing zero movement on my Aust. Post App for days.

:expressionless::grimacing::frowning:

I am using Sendle for interstate parcels. So far, so good. Tracking good, from drop off point right through to the delivery. Cheaper than Aust Post for my size parcels. Low cost insurance

Anyone have experiences to share?

I just got an email from couriers please to say your parcel has been delivered. Was delivered 20th March, 2020. That’s the email. Also it is real cause the tracking number is linked to the order from 2020.

Hahah! I had one of these too yesterday. I think from a parcel delivered June last year.

Several newly leased warehouses dotted around Australia that have floor to ceiling ULD’s stored in them.
Some freight 6 weeks late and only going to get worse.

Are ULDs Aldis version of UDLs?

Australia Post can eat my ballz.
Waiting 2 weeks for several parcels, most of which are in the same state I am.

Order a number of items from Amazon, and less than 48hrs later, it’s in my Amazon Parcel Locker.

Australia Post do a great job. I wonder if I’ll get an expensive watch in the mail?

they’re approaching fastway/aramex territory

well, where they were a year ago anyway. fastway are getting even worse. i’m out to 4 weeks waiting for something i ordered roughly 30km away.

-edit- tracking tells me it hasn’t even made it to their depot yet. “picked up from seller” on 30/9, and bupkis since then

They had held up really well, until the last month, at which point it’s all hit the fan. It’s very frustrating at the moment, I have 2kga if freshly roasted coffee sitting in one of @Aceman s ULDs somewhere and a grinder that is down to the last half days worth of supply.

Clearly should have stuck to the guy that does his own deliveries …

I’ve never got one, it’s only for the big knobs. I’m too far down the chain for a watch. Happy with my bonuses though as I’m not a wearer of watches anyway :rofl:

Amazon parcel locker? Is that what you call your front door?

The AP driver for my place is getting pretty bold. She drove into my driveway after me, then dropped off a card while I was getting out of my car, waved, and drove off.

So it looks like Aust. Post are delivering to Parcel Lockers on a Sunday, as today is the 2nd Sunday I have had an item arrive.

Has anyone had Aust. Post deliver to their house on a Sunday recently ?

I got an email last week saying AusPost had closed a query from Jan haha.

They’ve been doing it for about 15 months.
