morning delivery
Early postal drop
Morning delivery is the distribution of goods—especially newspapers, milk, or mail—during the early hours of the day, typically before midday.
The phrase often implies a scheduled or expected arrival time: We opted for morning delivery so someone would be home.
In older usage, it particularly referred to the milkman's rounds or the newspaper landing on the doorstep before breakfast.
