Ukrposhta to open 41 new offices for oversized cargo across the country
Ukrposhta wants to unload post offices by creating its own network of cargo offices. This year, we plan to open 41 oversized cargo acceptance points in regional centers.
This was reported on the website of the national postal operator.
“Analyzing the requests of customers and partners and the demand for services, the company is implementing a project of cargo departments specializing in receiving and delivering shipments. This will help to avoid queues at branches that also accept payments for bills, including utility bills and issue pensions,” Ukrposhta said.
About Ukrposhta’s cargo departments
It is noted that international parcels weighing up to 30 kg with a maximum side of 200 cm will also be available in cargo departments within Ukraine. Cash on delivery and packaging purchases will also be available.
In addition, the cargo departments will have a front line for receiving small shipments and a ramp with the ability to drive five- and ten-ton trucks. In the future, we are considering raising the weight criteria or working without weight restrictions.
The project has already reformatted 13 branches in Kharkiv, Odesa, Khmelnytskyi, and Chernivtsi. In addition, a new branch has been opened in Kharkiv at 118 Heroiv Kharkivu Avenue. In the future, when opening new freight branches, the bank will focus on key cities with a population of 80 thousand. and more.

Ukrposhta is launching cargo offices that are maximally adapted to receive and deliver large volumes of shipments. Container exchange is envisaged to significantly accelerate logistics processes,” Ukrposhta Deputy CEO for Network Development Yosyp Bornak said in a statement.
