You can now pack up to 5kg in any of our Express Post satchels.
Before, when you sent something weighing 5kg or under in an Express Post satchel, your postage was based on the weight range for the satchel you chose, starting at 500g maximum for the smallest satchel. If it weighed more than the maximum allowable weight for your satchel size, you were charged at the next weight level.
Now, instead of pricing being based on the weight ranges, it's based on the four satchel sizes - Small, Medium, Large and Extra Large. Each size has its own flat rate. You can now pack up to 5kg in, no matter which size you choose.
Here’s how our new size-based system for Express Post satchels compares to the previous weight-based system:
Previous weight-based Express Post satchel | New If It Packs, It Posts size-based satchels |
---|---|
Previous weight-based Express Post satchel If your item weighed more than the satchel's maximum limit, you were charged at the next weight level. |
New If It Packs, It Posts size-based satchels Now you can pack up to 5kg in any of these four sizes and simply pay the flat rate for that size. If it packs, it posts. |
