Australia Post

Inside the newly renovated Arkaba Shopping Centre is my local Australia Post branch. This is a great little post office and the staff are always helpful. I usually go there when in a state of panic and needing to send something urgently. The most recent saga they helped me with was when I had to send my passport to the Chinese Embassy in Canberra to get my visa organised. They advised me on the best way to do this. It turns out their registered post service is completely trackable allowing you to keep tabs on your items during any stage of their journey. Trust me when it comes to your passport and you need it in a matter of days in order to the leave the country, you appreciate that kind of help.
I like the fact that Australia Post outlets like this one stock a range of gifts, toys, stationery and gift cards these days. I picked up a JB Hifi voucher from them the other day and that saved me a trip into the city — I was very grateful.
My advice is to check out your local Australia Post branch just to see what services they offer — you may be surprised. If you live anywhere near the Arkaba Shopping Centre and this happens to be your local, stop by and do all your ‘post office’ errands.
