Important Message

Allied Express is currently experiencing some volume-related delivery delays following the Black Friday promotions and on-line sales activity. We’re working through these volumes quickly, and expect delivery performance to return to normal levels by the 2nd week of December.
We’re aware that deliveries in the NSW South Coast region are experiencing some longer delays. The areas affected are Wollongong, Nowra, Ulladulla, Batemans Bay, and Southern Highlands. Our agents in these areas are working hard to catch-up, and they also expect to return to normal levels within the same timeframe.
Now that December has arrived, it’s timely for customers to check our cut-off dates for delivery to be completed before Christmas Day – Allied Express Christmas cut-off dates These vary by sending and receiving areas, so check and plan early to ensure your delivery is completed on time.
Thank you for your understanding.
