Info for Trade Me users
Here's the info you need to get your parcels around New Zealand or across the world in one handy place. Happy trading!
Due to customer demand - the ParcelPost™ range has expanded
On 28 March 2008, New Zealand Post introduced a new pricing in proportion system for all standard domestic mail. Read more about the new system online or download the Sending your letters and parcels within New Zealand for personal customers (.pdf - 617kb).
Since then, some customers have asked for a more economic way to send larger items like records, calendars and board games. In response to this feedback, we have introduced a new Lineflow size, 395mm x 455mm (height x length). This will be more economic for sending between the North Island and the South Island.
The new Lineflow size is available in both our ParcelPost™ Tracked and ParcelPost™ PO Box Priority ranges.
