No printer, stamps or post office trip. Upload a PDF, Word document or photo, enter the Canberra ACT address and pay by card: $10 by regular post, folded, for up to 12 pages, or $20 by Express Post for up to 20 pages, then $0.30 a page, GST included. We print it exactly as uploaded and Australia Post does the rest.
Send from anywhere. We print and lodge it in Australia, so it reaches Braddon or the Canberra CBD as domestic post, even from overseas.
How long a letter takes to reach Canberra
- Express Post, $20: usually the next business day. Canberra metro addresses are inside Australia Post's Express Post next-business-day network.
- Regular post, $10: usually 3 to 7 business days.
- Tracking, free with both: we email the tracking number once the letter is lodged. Signature on delivery is $6 extra with either; regular post signed for is Registered post.
These are Australia Post's estimates, not a guarantee: once lodged, arrival is up to Australia Post. See Australia Post delivery times.
Same-day posting cutoff for Canberra
Pay by 2:30pm Canberra time on a business day and your letter is printed and posted that day.
Pay after the cutoff or on a weekend and it goes in the post by the next business day.
Canberra addresses we post to
Anywhere Australia Post delivers in the ACT: houses, apartments, offices and PO Boxes, across postcodes 2600 to 2620 and 2900 to 2914.
We post to Braddon, Belconnen, Woden, Gungahlin and Tuggeranong, every other Canberra suburb and the rest of the Australian Capital Territory, all for the same price.
Add a company, unit, level or care-of line. Your return address goes on the envelope, so undelivered mail comes back to you.
Good to know about Canberra
Canberra has no local council: the ACT Government does that job, and it takes plenty of paper forms, as do the federal departments across the city.
What people post to Canberra
Mostly documents that have to arrive on paper:
- Tenancy and bond paperwork, including notices and evidence for the ACT Civil and Administrative Tribunal (ACAT).
- Letters, objections and applications to the ACT Government, which does what a council does elsewhere.
- Forms for state and federal agencies in Canberra that won't take email or need an ink signature.
- Signed contracts, statutory declarations (always printed single-sided) and legal notices.
- Personal letters: to a hospital ward, aged-care home, share house, or someone who isn't online.
