Should I Put A Recently Purchased Bay Tree Into A Pot With Holes

Question

I’ve recently purchased a bay tree which I am standing in a pot near to my front door. The plastic pot that it came in, doesn’t have holes in the bottom. Should I re-pot it into a plastic pot with holes to ensure proper drainage or should I leave it until next spring?
