United Parcel Service Inc. Chairman and Chief Executive James Kelly has
said that the world’s largest package delivery company’s fourth-quarter
shipping activity would be “less robust” than expected earlier following
the September attacks on the United States.
Postal chiefs are under fire over moves to scrap the 8am collection from thousands of mailboxes.
The policy has been introduced across Britain ‘by stealth’ over the past 12 months, it is claimed.
Royal Mail, renamed Consignia, admits it intends to scale back post box checks even though it is collecting more mail than ever before.
The company claims the cutback is an ‘efficiency-enhancing measure’ which will help improve services.
However, handling of the plan to axe early-morning collections was branded ‘secretive’ by Post-Watch.
