Mail centre
The Royal Mail operates a network of 39 mail centres.〔(Quick change | myroyalmail )〕 Each mail centre serves a large geographically defined area of the United Kingdom〔http://stakeholders.ofcom.org.uk/binaries/research/cmr/cmr12/UK_6.pdf〕 and together they form the backbone network of the mail distribution operation. The number of mail centres has been reducing as the service is modernised〔(Mail Centre Closures - a Freedom of Information request to Royal Mail Group Limited - WhatDoTheyKnow )〕 and in 2008 there were 69 mail centres. In 2013 and 2014 a further eight are planned to be closed. Mail items are delivered to homes and businesses from 1,356 delivery offices, which are supplied by the mail centres. ==Operations== As part of the sorting process, mail is collected from pillar boxes, Post Office branches and businesses, and brought to the local mail centre. The process is divided into two parts. The 'outward' sorting, identifies mail for delivery in the mail centre geographic area, which is retained and mail intended for other mail centres, which is dispatched. The 'inward' sorting forwards this mail to the relevant delivery offices within the mail centre area.〔 The geographic area of the mail centre corresponds to one or more postcode areas.
