Online shopping is here to stay. From new sneakers to dog toys and everything in between – it all comes your way via delivery. But. How often are you just short of home? Or is your package with the neighbors, a pickup point or – worse – has it disappeared?
A package mailbox is the solution to that. In this blog, we explain to you what it is, how it works and why more and more people are putting one in front of their homes or businesses.
What is a package mailbox?
A package mailbox is a special, spacious mailbox that receives not only mail, but also packages – safely, dry and at any time of day. Once the delivery man puts your package in and closes the flap, the box automatically locks. Only you can open it afterwards.
It’s basically your personal delivery point, but directly to your home.
Why a regular mailbox isn’t enough anymore
A standard mailbox is often too small for packages. Consequence: packages are left at the door, disappear, get wet or end up at the neighbors’ door again and again. And that while we seek convenience in online ordering.
Moreover, the number of online orders is growing every year. So why keep muddling along with something that actually no longer fits how we store?
The benefits of a parcel mailbox
- Always receive packages – even when you’re not at home
- No hassle with neighbors or pickup points
- Package is stored safely and dry
- Saves time and frustration
- Also useful for returns (on some models)
How exactly does a package mailbox work?
Very simple. Here is the process in 3 steps:
- The delivery driver opens the top cover or feed hatch
- Places the package in the box
- Close the lid – the box locks automatically
