About this area
We list 72,637 locations in 3,758 towns and cities across the United Kingdom. The places with the most are London, Birmingham, Glasgow, Manchester and Sheffield. The carriers with the most locations are InPost, Evri, Post Office, DPD and DHL.
50,799 of them have opening hours on record, so we can tell you whether they are open right now.
Post Office and Royal Mail are two different companies
Branches belong to Post Office Ltd; collection and delivery belong to Royal Mail. That matters when you get a “Sorry we missed you” card: unless you chose redelivery to a branch, the item usually waits at a Royal Mail Customer Service Point — the local delivery office — not at the post office on the high street.
Most branches are counters inside convenience stores and newsagents, which is why opening hours vary so much from one to the next. Many also handle everyday banking for the major UK banks: cash deposits, withdrawals and balance checks.
Parcel shops and lockers
Beyond the Post Office, parcels move through Evri ParcelShops, DPD Pickup shops, Yodel stores, InPost lockers and Amazon lockers. Lockers are the quickest option when you can’t get to a counter during the day: most are open around the clock.
Postcodes
UK postcodes have an outward part (area and district, e.g. SW1A) and an inward part (sector and unit, e.g. 1AA), together SW1A 1AA. A full postcode often covers only a handful of addresses, so it is the fastest way to search.
Frequently asked questions
How many post offices and parcel points are listed for the UK?
Postmapia lists 72,637 locations in the UK: 45,578 post office branches and counters, 18,900 parcel lockers and 8,159 other carrier points.
Where do I collect a parcel after a missed delivery?
Read the card: Royal Mail items usually wait at the local Customer Service Point; Evri, DPD and others name the shop or locker they used. Take photo ID and the card.
Are post offices open on Sunday?
A small number are, mostly inside large supermarkets. Each branch page shows today’s hours where they are on record.
