Start Planning a Trip to the Lane Cove Post Office for Your Christmas Deliveries

Yes, we know it’s very early to mention the “C” word, Christmas.  However, if you are planning to send a gift overseas it’s time to get organised.

Send your gifts early

Australia Post has one simple message – send your gifts early.

Cut Off Dates

For Economy Air, many destinations require cards and gifts to be sent as early as 14 November 2022 but for International Standard and Express there is more time.

If posting with International Express, some popular destinations like the USA, the UK, New Zealand and Canada should be sent by 9 December 2022.

Recommended last sending dates for posting to other states and territories will be released in the coming weeks.

Australia Post Executive General Manager, Customer and Commercial Gary Starr said Australia Post had worked closely with international carriers to provide as much notice as possible so Australians give their cards and gifts the best chance of reaching loved ones in time for the big day.

“We know our last sending dates provide an important guide for people in the lead up to Christmas and we’ve been preparing all year for another busy peak season to ensure things run as smoothly as possible,” Mr Starr said.

“For anyone who wants to send internationally for Christmas this year, we’re encouraging them to visit our website and post by the dates advised.

“As always, we’ll continue to deliver items sent after these dates as quickly as possible but they may not arrive until after Christmas.”

International sending dates vary depending on destination and may be affected by factors beyond Australia Post’s control including customs delays and overseas postal disruptions.

Customers are encouraged to stay up to date by visiting auspost.com.au/christmas and searching by destination country for more information.

Unashamed Plug

Many Lane Cove residents have told us that our Lane Cove Tea Towels are the ideal gift to send overseas to a loved one who may be missing Lane Cove.  They are easy to send, and you don’t need to mortgage the house to pay for postage.  Our Tea Towels are available at Be.U Natural in the Lane Cove Arcade.  Due to popular demand, we have also commissioned a limited run for Longueville, Riverview and Greenwich tea towels – they are being printed and will be ready soon.  If you would like to pre-order please email here.
