--- Quote ---Letter deliveries to be delayed until 5pm in Royal Mail shake-up
Delivery times moved later in effort to offer bigger parcel service

Thousands of households across Britain will not receive their post until after six o’clock in the evening under a major shake-up proposed by Royal Mail.

The postal service wants to push back deliveries until later in the day as part of plans to deliver parcels more quickly.

With many online shopping orders now made late at night, bosses want postmen and women to set off on their rounds later to give time for “next day” packages to arrive at sorting offices.

But modelling of the changes has found this could mean more than 100 areas of Britain get their post at 5pm or later, the Telegraph can reveal.
