Diwali delivery and visitor entry notice for your society
In the week before Diwali (Sunday, 8 November 2026), deliveries spike: gift hampers, sweets, online orders, food. Guests arrive in the evenings, and security sees new faces all day. Without clear rules, residents get calls at odd hours and the gate backs up. A short notice, sent about ten days ahead, sets expectations for residents and guards alike.
What the notice should cover
- Delivery handling: whether delivery staff go up to flats, or parcels are left at the gate or a lobby desk for pickup.
- Timings: hours when deliveries are allowed inside, and what happens after hours.
- Visitor entry: pre-approval through the society app or intercom, and a visitor register at the gate.
- Domestic help and drivers: any change in entry during the festival days.
- One contact at the security desk for missed or misplaced parcels.
The free Diwali notice generator makes the parking, firecracker timing and safety notices for the same week.
