Hi all,
Can anyone point me to a direct link for the Post Office leaflet delivery service. I am having trouble in trying to find it. Or a phone number if possible.
thanks

I live in the cheshire area and our local distribution center is about half hour away from me so i guess yours will be in the close proximity to you.
Think if you type in royal mail and it should direct you from there :)
I do know that you will have to take your leaflets to your local distribution center when you book your drop :)

Hi
Try searching for "Door to Door" which is what they call it.
When i have used them i have to drop them in Warrington which is about 25 miles away.

Good rugby team as well i hear :o

Before you gp Royal Mail ask your own postie how many actually get delivered. Most are returned as the posties just leave them :o

The dtd stop soon for xmas (or usually do)
Just ask the postie to deliver them for cash ;D ;D ;D (not in work time of course) ;)
I've 'heard' that in 'some' delivery offices dtd's only get taken out to houses with mail, otherwise a postie won't bother going to the hassle of delivering what is commonly refered to as 'Junk'
I've also heard rumours that come friday and it's been a busy week a big pile (and I mean BIG) of the door to doors get taken away discreetly ;)
ANOTHER 'rumour' I've heard of is that your leaflet will be placed inside something bigger, ie a Pizza menu. Every postie has 3 seperate items of dtd to deliver and they all get folded together.
Obviously just rumours I have heard ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Thanks all for the replies.
Im sure bulk leafleting is the way to go, it's just finding out a honest "company" to do it!
Do any of you use a leaflet delivery company? I have had one at http://www.leafletmaster.co.uk trying to get me to have them deliver the leaflets, but as usual I wasnt sure ???
Has anyone heard either good or bad stories about them?Or is there a good delivery company that can be recommended?
Thanks

your better off getting a local company to deliver them solus, might cost more, but you WILL get a better return, wouldnt bother with the post office, or newspapers as the all get shoved inside something else (i once had mine put inside a co-op panthlet, trouble was, there wasnt a co-op in my town, so complete waste of money, if people dont use co-op, they dont see my flyer) i had 50,000 go that route, got 6 calls!!!
i try to deliver them myself now, hour each day, or get people i know to help, can never really trust anyone else 100%!!

It's Royal Mail Door to Door Service. www.royalmail.com/doortodoor
Just a work of warning I don't feel that they do a good job, I had them delivery 20000 flyers cost me over £600 (£36 @ 1000) to cover Birmingham City Centre and I haven't had one response from the campaign. That was just over two weeks ago.
I would have been better off using another a set of guys that were recommended to me by another carpet cleaner who had used them before. The were charging £20.00 per 1000.
Like most of these services there are no guarantee or official checking, I am getting better results from the leaflets I deliver myself.

Ive done the door to door with the royal mail over the last four years , you have to sign a contract with them, its a minimum of £500.00 order and it takes eight weeks to set up and they don't deliver the three/four weeks up to christmas.

Think its like most things you will get some that do the job and some that dont.
I did drop some leaflets a few weeks ago and that was just the next few houses were i was working and its not a pleasant job mate.
Maybe someone you know or a retired person that you know to earn a few extra quid ???
