Street delivery lockers, also known as lockers or automated mailboxes, are special lockers or cabinets installed on streets or in public places designed to receive and send goods and parcels. This is a convenient solution for people who are often away from home and cannot receive parcels during normal business hours.
How do outdoor parcel lockers work?
Typically, street delivery lockers operate on the following principle:
- Order and payment. When placing an order, the buyer selects the option of delivery to a street locker and pays for the purchase.
- Specifying the box address. The buyer indicates the address of the nearest street locker where the package should be delivered.
- Notice and access code. After the parcel is delivered to the delivery locker, the parcel service sends a notification to the buyer with a unique access code or QR code.
- Receiving the parcel. The buyer comes to the automated box, enters a unique code or scans a QR code, opens the box and picks up his parcel.
