Sending Easter presents via courier with Eurosender

Easter is one of the most important holidays that people celebrate all around the world. As a rule, several weeks before Easter are rather busy for many courier companies. Thus, we encourage you to plan Easter delivery beforehand so that your presents or goods arrive on time.

The number of parcels and pallets sent is increasing with each day approaching Easter. Thus, enormous volumes of shipments may sometimes cause delays during this period. In case you send Easter presents via courier abroad, such factors as customs control or unfavourable weather conditions may also impact the estimated delivery date.

What dates are suitable for sending a parcel for Easter?

You can send a parcel for Easter on any business day before the holiday. In case you prefer the last-minute or express shipping services, we encourage you to check the working calendar of the pick-up and delivery countries. To help you with planning Easter delivery beforehand, we have created a list of non-working days in different European countries.

• 19th of April, Good Friday – In such countries as the United Kingdom, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Hungary, Latvia, the Netherlands, Portugal, Slovakia, and Sweden, Good Friday is a non-working day. It means that pick-ups and deliveries are not scheduled for that day.
• 22th of April, Easter Monday – All schools and most businesses are closed in Austria, Belgium, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Poland, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland, and the United Kingdom (except Scotland). It means that couriers will not pick up and deliver packages on Easter Monday.
• 26th of April, Orthodox Good Friday – It is a bank holiday in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Greece, Moldova, Montenegro, Romania, Serbia. Courier service providers are not working on Orthodox Good Friday in those countries.
• 29th of April, Orthodox Easter Monday – While most European countries celebrate Catholic Easter, some others have Orthodox holidays. Thus, Orthodox Easter Monday is a non-working day in Bulgaria, Moldova, Romania, Serbia, Macedonia, Montenegro, and Greece. It means that neither collection nor delivery of parcels is possible on that day.

Taking this information into account allows sending a parcel for Easter via courier in a timely manner.

• Firstly, you need to fill out the order form by providing shipment and personal details.
• Secondly, the system will choose the most appealing delivery option.
• Thirdly, the only thing you need to do before courier comes is to pack your parcel properly.

Please keep in mind that if your package is picked up shortly before the dates mentioned above, the estimated delivery time could be changed. Nevertheless, delivery before Easter has a priority compared to the collection of items.
