What on earth is going on with Aus Post today.

My security camera captures one delivery from the postie. Then an hour later same guy delivers another package.

And AusPost tracking still has another one coming today.

Sounds like someone at AusPost has messed up the timeline πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ

Sounds like he forgot to organise his truck

The 3rd item came in a van, the other two were on the postie bike. Weird all around. None were big items, just books.

Ah yep. Where I am, I can actually receive things from 3 different people/places on the same day. There's the van boys who deliver all the larger things (pretty much anything that comes in a box), then there's the bloke in one of these things (no clue what they're called), he's a nice bloke, super friendly, and he comes from the closest sorting centre. He delivers things larger than a standard envelope, but still thin. Then there's the letter man from the local post office. He drives something similar to the other dude, but smaller, has less capacity, and is more of a motorbike, and I haven't had a chance to chat to him since he only delivers small mail that doesn't require a signature.

That's the postie-mobile. Like the popemobile, but it delivers goods instead of faith.

It's a Kyburz DXP.
