Mail opening service
Save time and money by getting inbound mail opened and sorted before delivery
Opening mail takes up space, wastes employees’ time, and costs you money. Let Royal Mail deliver your mail pre-sorted into the categories of your choice, every day – so you can get back to business.
You need to be a business account customer, spending a minimum of £5000 a year. With an account you’ll discover even more ways to save money and streamline your business.
If you already have an Account Manager, contact them to discuss how mail opening can save you time, money and space
