If you find your parcel doesn't arrive, it might have been stolen in Hawke's Bay along with the brightly coloured NZ Post courier van it was in.
A spokesperson for NZ Post confirmed a courier van was stolen in the Napier area this week.
"The matter is currently being investigated by police, so unfortunately we cannot provide any further detail at this stage.
"We ask our community to please be vigilant and to notify police of any suspicious activity."
A police spokeswoman said they were notified of a vehicle being stolen from a property in Logan Ave, Napier, about 1.30pm on Tuesday.
