External freight carriers – test drive in Vienna: mail now also arrives on Sundays

Date:

Now also post on Sundays. This will now be available on a trial basis in a number of districts in Vienna. From October 6, “Premium” shipping customers in Vienna’s 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th districts can also receive the package on the seventh day of the week.

“If the test is positive, the whole of Vienna and then the surrounding area and other state capitals should follow suit in the first half of 2025,” the Austrian Post said.

“Well prepared for Black Friday”
“We are not only the pioneer, but we also bring together market requirements and innovation,” emphasizes Walter Oblin, appointed Managing Director of the partially state-listed Vienna group.

With the start in October, the post office is “perfectly prepared for the high season around Black Friday and Christmas,” said Peter Umundum, Director of Parcel & Logistics at Post AG.

The post office itself uses external transport companies for delivery, pays a Sunday surcharge and provides compensation for working hours, the company assures.
