Royal Mail - don't close the Carnoustie sorting office.

The Issue

Royal Mail operations in Carnoustie could be facing major changes.

The sorting office located at Queen Street, just off the town’s High Street, could be closed by Royal Mail and operations moved elsewhere.

One of the suggestions could see staff relocated to the Dundee East sorting office at Ivory Place, West Pitkerro Industrial Estate, behind Sainsbury’s Claypotts store. 

This might also mean that services, such as customer parcel collection, would also be relocated. This would result in a 20 mile plus round trip or two buses for those who don't drive. 

Let Royal Mail know that you want the collection service to remain in Carnoustie by signing this petition.

Thank You

The Decision Makers

Royal Mail
Royal Mail
Responded
“Royal Mail is exploring the option of relocating the Carnoustie Delivery Office to its Dundee East Delivery Office in Spring 2016. This is part of Royal Mail’s ongoing transformation of its business and its work to increase the efficiency of its operations. Before any decision is taken to relocate a delivery office, we talk to our union and our staff to seek their feedback, which we have begun to do this week. If the move does go ahead, detailed planning will take place to ensure a smooth transition for our operations, our people and the service we provide to our customers. One of the things we look at is how far customers would have to travel to collect any undelivered mail and if we can find a local solution. Whenever a delivery office move goes ahead, we would always offer our customers alternative means of receiving undelivered items of mail, including delivery to neighbour, re-delivery to the addressee or to another local address specified by the customer. We will communicate any decision about the relocation of this office to our customers as soon as it has been made, and we have discussed it with our union and our staff. ”
