NZ POST--Kiwis really have been shopping up a storm, and we received the highest number of domestic parcels last week than in any other week in NZ Post’s history. To put this into perspective, we’re receiving on average over 200 parcels every minute.
As we moved through Alert Level 3 and more retailers started operating again, we’ve seen a huge increase in the number of parcels that we need to deliver around the country. Combined with physical distancing, this means things are a little slower right now and it is taking longer to get your parcels to you. Most of our parcels are being delivered within two to three working days but in some cases, we are seeing delays of up to five working days (and a little longer with some international parcels). While we’ll continue to pull out all the stops to get your parcels to you as quickly as possible, we expect this volume to continue over the coming weeks, so there will be ongoing delays. We know that the parcels you’re waiting for are important to you. Our expanded contact centre teams are working overtime and doing everything they can to answer your queries as quickly as possible. Please help us out by checking our FAQs first if you have any questions and only call us if your parcel has been delayed longer than five working days. Rest assured that while there may be a delay, we will get your parcel to you as soon as we possibly can.
Here are just some of the things we’re doing to make sure Kiwis get their parcels:
=========================================================
***11 sites across the country processing 24/7
***All possible warehouses across the country sorting and processing
***Approximately 200 extra vehicles
***Parcels delivered 7 days a week
***An additional 3,000 containers to transport parcels around the country
***Teams delivering hundreds of thousands of parcels some days

Age Well Kiwi
We are a new support group for seniors. We meet once a month to share our experience and discuss our challenges & concerns.
With the growth of our ageing population, and more seniors living alone, this group would explore and advocate/address the social, emotional and physical needs of our seniors, and promote positive and healthy ageing.
We meet on the first Saturday afternoon of the month in Mt. Roskill. Our next meeting will be 3 Jan 2026.
If you are interested in joining us and contribute your ideas, knowledge, experience, talents and resources, we would love to hear from you. Please contact us at agewellkiwi@gmail.com.
