    Posties will be no more in four to six years, as NZ post announces significant change to the delivery service

    Posties will be no more in four to six years, as NZ post announces significant change to the delivery service


     
     
    It's confirmed both mail and parcels will eventually be delivered by courier drivers, meaning up to 750 people will be out of a job in mail delivery, processing and support roles.

    Chief Executive David Walsh says change is never easy, but people are communicating differently.

    He says 20 years ago they delivered one billion mail items in a year, this year that number is more like 200 million.
