A Wirral postman has formed his own private courier business that could revolutionise the postal industry and save local businesses thousands of pounds. Paul East’s new concept, Local Postal Solutions, offers businesses a same day postal delivery that’s far cheaper and better for the environment than the traditional postal service.

Paul is a postman with over 16 years’ experience in the postal industry. Noticing a gap in the market, he has created a concept that should be a no-brainer for local businesses — offering postage within Wirral for much cheaper whilst cutting out the lengthy process used by the national postage service.

Paul explained: “Not everyone is aware of the lengthy process that happens when their post is collected by Royal Mail. Once the postman collects it from your business, it gets sorted in a sorting office in Prenton before going to Chester in a large lorry to be sorted there too. It then comes back to Wirral to be delivered to the intended recipient.”
He continued: “This lengthy process means there is more chance of mail getting lost and as of May 23 the on-time delivery rate was just 73.7% against the target of 93%. Also, only 89.4% of duties got completed. There have been price increases of 66% and 10,000 job losses within Royal Mail, so it has all compelled me to think about the whole process. It’s just not logical, not to mention the unnecessary carbon emissions.”

Whereas you may expect private postal couriers to be more expensive, Paul’s Local Postal Solutions is much cheaper and more efficient than Royal Mail’s service. Paul collects from the business, sorts the mail immediately and then delivers to the various recipients straight away. He even offers a money-back guarantee if he is unable to fulfil this target.

As an example, with Local Postal Solutions an A4 letter of up to 750g costs £1.20 as opposed to £2.95 – £3.30 with Royal Mail. Therefore, if a local solicitors sent an average of 20 of these to local clients per day, they’d save around £40 per day. Over the year, this would equate to approximately £14,000 savings per annum.
Paul said: “People expect private couriers to be an expensive luxury service but not in this case. Local Postal Solutions is cheaper, more efficient and a personal service. When I’ve explained it to people, they can’t believe it hasn’t been done before! The clients who have been using me so far are made up — especially when they start to see the savings.”

Ideal for businesses that send out regular mail locally such as accountants, solicitors, schools, doctors, dentists, estate agents and housing associations, Local Postal Solutions is a no-brainer. He also offers a discount for schools and charities. Following the Wirral launch, Paul is aiming to branch out further afield and ultimately revolutionise the industry.

Paul is planning to help as many businesses as possible in Wirral, before expanding his fleet, going fully electric (he currently uses his bike for as many deliveries as possible) and employing more people in order to offer the service in other areas. With Royal Mail reporting huge staff redundancies, price increases and failed service delivery targets, Paul’s concept could well have come at the right time.

Paul summarised: “People get used to things being a certain way and often just assume that’s the way they’re meant to be, but I’m a firm believer in questioning things and trying to do things differently. I’m hoping that this new postal concept will revolutionise the industry — saving businesses lots of money and saving the planet in the process.”
