Well your pal is wrong, depending on the service some mail goes by air some by road,Originally Posted by derekj
I can understand the far reaches of the Scottish islands having to be reached by aircraft but everywhere else according to my pal goes by road. That would explain why there are multiple depot 'hubs' strategically placed across the country. Remember the fact that Britain is only a little country. Easy to get freight where it needs to be when you have LGV drivers willing to do the distance for only a score an hour
I've had an air gun sent RMSD refused by the CAA, so it was sent by road, not only did I get an apology for the delay I also got the cost refunded,
but I was very lucky that the buyer phoned me as soon as the postie passed his house & I phoned RM immediately gave them the ref number told them it was an airgun so it was sent on by road before it was diverted to Belfast.
