Road conditions to finally improve allowing post and bin collection services to recommence

Tipperary roads have been in a treacherous condition all week with thousands without postal services, bin collection services as well as an absense of electricity and water in some hard hit areas. 

As conditions slowly start to improve, An Post is attempting more letter and parcel deliveries wherever it is safe to do so and will make special attempts to deliver on Saturday in the affected areas, wherever resourcing and conditions allow.

An Post will make a point of checking in on customers living alone or in isolated areas, and will encourage anyone in need of assistance to call ALONE’s national contact number (0818 222 024).

New ferry sailings to mitigate the impact of the Holyhead disruption have delivered large volumes of international parcels into An Post and we are planning for heavy parcel deliveries tomorrow Saturday and next week.

Almost all Post Offices are open, though some for reduced hours in some areas.   All offices are due to open tomorrow (Saturday) morning as usual
