Christmas is a special time of year for spending time with family and friends, eating good food and hopefully enjoying some time away from work, but it’s easy for this time to become stressful with crowded shops, last-minute panic buys and even cooking disasters!
Parcel Monkey can’t help you get the timings right for the perfect Christmas dinner (roast turkey always takes longer than you think), but we can help you plan ahead to ensure you don’t miss the last posting dates for Christmas.
If you’re sending Christmas gifts by post or courier this year, the last shipping date for sending parcels in France is December 18, 2019, for express delivery and December 16, 2019, for standard delivery.
Sending Christmas gifts is easy with Parcel Monkey. Book Colissimo and UPS at discounted prices and choose between a courier collection from your home or work address or drop off your parcel at your local drop-off point.
The dates below should be used as a guide to plan your Christmas deliveries, however, please be aware that due to the large number of parcels sent in December delays are possible, so we would always recommend shipping early to ensure your gifts arrive before Christmas Day. If you book a parcel drop-off service, please allow one extra working day.
| Delivery Service | Deadline for Sending |
|---|---|
| Express | December 16, 2019 |
| Economy | December 18, 2019 |
