HELP: Post box posting times??

[TarahC]

Hi, I left something at home that desperately needs to be posted today (otherwise the postage I printed out will be invalid and a waste of money).

Does anyone know of a post box in East Dulwich that does a last collection from 5:45-6:30??? If you could let me know what time it is and where then I can get there as soon as I get home!

Thanks!!

I don't know but i'd guess the post box on the post office wall would be the latest.

The sorting Office in Silvester Road.

There's a post box on the sorting office wall that'll be that late do you think?

[sophiesofa]

maybe try and find a phone number for them and ring and ask.

i belive the post office in LL last collection is either 5:00 or 5:30

ISTR, that the post box on the corner of Tintagel Crescent and Grove Vale (just north of the LL roundabout) had a 6:30pm last collection. I have used this box on many occasions in the past but do not know whether its last collection is still the same today. Good Luck.

My memory is that it changed to 5.30. Could be wrong, but I think it would be useful to have a positive confirmation of any later time. Best hope in SE22 imo would be to check whether any 5.30 collection has actually taken place. They can be late, by even 15+ minutes, sometimes.

Thank you so much to everyone! I'm off to check it out and will post up here as soon as I find out the actual time.

As an update, all the post boxes are 5:30pm unfortunately, even the one on the outside of the sorting office on Silvester Rd. However, they do pin point a 7:30pm box in Vauxhall.

Which, on googling for "SW8 last collection", also turns up in this resource at SW8 5 http://www.dracos.co.uk/play/locating-postboxes/?pc1=SW8

I see it also lists several late ones in SE1.
