With many homeowners returning to office working after a long time of being at home for deliveries, there is a growing interest in having a home parcel drop box to securely store your packages until you return home. But with lots of options on the market, how do you choose the best parcel drop box for your home?
What to Consider Before Buying a Parcel Drop Box
There are many considerations to assess before making your decision. From ensuring it’s large enough to accommodate your delivery frequency and sizes to the level of security that your deliveries need, here we’ll tell you everything, you need to consider before investing in a parcel box for your home.
Size
Your packages can arrive in a variety of different sized parcel boxes. Even when ordering small items, you may be surprised to see the amount of packaging used to contain it.
If you’re a homeowner who frequently receives a lot of packages or often find yourself ordering items that are too large to fit through your letter box and end up left out on the doorstep. In that case, you’ll want to pick an appropriate parcel box size to facilitate this.
The Brizebox comes in three different sizes: Standard (accepting parcels sized 32×23x18cm), Large (41x31x22cm) and Extra-Large (52x39x32cm). To determine the size you’ll need, consider the packages you receive most commonly and which will allow them to fit best. As well as this, you should assess how many packages you typically get in a short period, as our parcel drop box can receive multiple packages until it is full, at which point you must empty it to receive more.
Security
If you’re expecting a package while you’re away from home, the concern of parcel theft or the potential for bad weather may have you wanting a safer package delivery system. Remove the worry of wondering what condition your parcel will be like when you return or if it will even be there with a secure parcel drop box that hides and protects the packages that would instead be left in the open outside your door.
The Brizebox is made from galvanised steel that is then powder coated with exterior grade paint to make it rust-resistant. As well as this, it includes rubber seals on the drawer and door to prevent water from getting inside even on the rainiest days, keeping your parcels safe from any potential water damage.
The heavy weight of the parcel drop box, coupled with the fact that it can be mounted to a home wall or directly into the floor outside with secure bolts, makes it incredibly hard to try and remove. Stainless steel is used for the three-point locking system mechanism, which means it is extremely difficult to be broken into and has parcels stolen from within.
Installation
While our BrizeBox is securely installed on your property, that doesn’t mean the installation isn’t straightforward. We have various choices for where the Brizebox can be installed, so choose the one that provides the best convenience. Whether it’s our Built-in variant designed to be installed directly into a wall on your property or our Standalone option that can be bolted to a wall, the floor, or attached to a post – we have many guides on how to fit your parcel drop box quickly and easily.
