How does the post work? What is post?
Tell a FriendThe post it the mail, for those of you who may have been confused.
Post offices are open regular business hours from Monday to Friday. Most post is collected from red drop boxes by 6:00 pm Monday to Friday. Local post takes one to two days from major city to major city and becomes longer depending on where you’re mail is going.
Logistics:
Australia uses a detention technology to read and sort mail based on address, as a result it is very important that you write the post code in the boxes provided. Postage stamps cost $0.50.
You have three options for sending mail overseas:
- Air Mail (takes about 7 days)
- Economy Air Mail (takes about 14 days)
- Surface Mail (takes about 2 months)
Prices vary depending on what the package weighs and where it’s going. Click here for more details.
