My local office insist you wait 24 hours from the time on the card.


The waiting time before collection is dependent on when the mail gets
back to the callers office. When I was in delivery I used to write an
actual time in instead of the wait X hours. Suggesting 24 hours is
probably an insurance against you arriving before they have got the
item back and put it on the shelf, which is most annoying for both you
and the callers office staff. Some delivery rounds finish at places
other than the callers office.
