Delivering for Good
We’re supporting a number of truly deserving organisations with free courier services.
Turn your soft plastics into fence posts with NZ Post!
Our new pre-paid Soft Plastic Recycle Courier bags make recycling household soft plastics easy and accessible to Kiwis all over NZ.
Our 2050 commitment
We've upgraded our goal of becoming carbon neutral to net-zero by 2050. We’re aiming to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions by 42%* by 2030 so we can reach a reduction of at least 90% by 2050 (from our 2023 baseline).

Delivering for our communities
We support and help grow our local communities where we all live and work. Together we can improve connection, belonging and inclusion.
Electrifying our fleet
We’re well on our way to having 100% of our own fleet electric by 2025, with 67% already electrified. We’re also providing incentives and support to our delivery partners to help them transition to low emissions delivery.
Sustainable packaging
By 2025, we've committed to only offering you 100% reusable, recyclable or compostable packaging, but you can already find a range of sustainable packaging options when you visit your local NZ Post outlet.
