Get your parcel from your pickup point to the right gate, worksite, village or landing point by planning the final stretch—not just naming the town. A town name alone may not explain the access, handover or crossing involved.

What changes on the last stretch of a delivery?
The last stretch is the part between the main journey and the actual handover. An estate may have several gates or buildings. An industrial site may require a specific entrance or check-in. A rural or island destination may involve a particular access road, landing point or crossing. The details matter because the courier needs to find the recipient—not merely the nearest named town.
How to prepare your parcel’s final delivery, step by step
- Get the recipient’s full name and a phone number they can answer.
- Write the estate, building or site name, then add the exact block, unit, floor or room where relevant.
- Ask which gate or entrance to use and whether the site has check-in instructions.
- For rural or island destinations, confirm the specific village or locality, landing point and any crossing or difficult road section involved.
- Share a map pin alongside written directions and a recognisable landmark. The pin can point to an area without identifying the correct entrance or handover spot.
- Pack for the parcel’s contents and the journey, and agree with the recipient where the handover can happen.
Why might the nearest depot be the wrong departure point?
Map distance is only one part of a journey. A road section, site access rules or a water crossing can change the practical route. Don’t choose a starting point based only on which depot looks closest to the destination; use the Send page to see the options that apply to your parcel and destination.
A worked example: sending to an industrial site
Say you’re sending a parcel to someone at a large worksite. “Industrial area” may get the parcel near the destination, but it doesn’t identify the recipient’s building or entrance. Get the site name, gate, unit or department, check-in instructions and a reachable recipient contact. Add a map pin and a written landmark so the handover details are clear.
What can go wrong when destination details are too vague?
- A town name or pin alone may leave the exact handover point unclear.
- A recipient who cannot be reached can make it harder to resolve entrance or access questions.
- Choosing by map distance alone can overlook crossings or difficult road sections.
- Packaging that doesn’t suit the contents or full journey can leave the parcel more vulnerable to damage.
