DX Announces Local Collection Facility Agreement With Royal Mail Group

IVER, England - DX Group (DX) today announced they have agreed a deal to access the Post Office network to provide a local collection facility for undeliverable mail.

Under the service, Post Office(R) Collect, DX will take mail that could not be delivered first time, because no-one was at home to sign for the item, to a local Post Office branch. Customers can then collect the item at their convenience.

“This access will enable our clients to offer their customers a truly exceptional service with unrivalled secure delivery by DX, enhanced with a local collection option for the time when customers are not in to take delivery of their mail,” commented John Coghlan, Chief Executive Officer at DX. “Reaching this agreement with Royal Mail Group is a demonstration of our commitment to innovation and development designed around our customers’ needs.”

DX are the first private mail company to reach an agreement to access Post Offices in this way. Trials for the DX collection service will commence in May with the full nationwide launch expected in Summer 2009.
