A home parcel post box is an excellent addition to any home that will help benefit your life in many ways, including:
- Not having to be home for deliveries
- Allowing the safe and secure delivery of even larger parcels without fear of them being stolen or damaged.
- Deliveries won’t interrupt your daily routine as packages can be subtly placed in the post box for later retrieval.
However, a home post box doesn’t just help you, they also benefit the couriers delivering the packages too.
How does a Home Parcel Post Box help couriers
A parcel post box is a great cost-effective investment that your couriers will be thanking you for owning with the host of advantages it also offers them.
Easy Access
The Brizebox is incredibly intuitive and easy to use. There is no code needed for the courier to access the box they just need to turn the handle and pull out the drawer. Afterwards, they can place the package(s) inside and shut the door again, which will cause the false bottom to open, dropping the package down into the secure compartment below, ready for retrieval. Multiple deliveries can be made on the same day from different couriers until it is full. At this point, it will lock and no longer accept new parcels.
Dedicated Leaving Space
A home parcel post box also indicates clearly to a courier where you want the packages to be left. Without one or a location specified, it can be difficult for the courier to know where is best to leave the package that is both safe and easily attainable. They don’t have to leave it with a neighbour or potentially come back at a later time when is more suitable.
Frictionless process
As well as not requiring a code lock to access the parcel post box, there is no need for them to wait for you to answer the door, so there is no need for any human interaction. The courier can simply leave it in the parcel post box for the owner to collect later. Even if a signature is required for the parcel to be delivered, our Brizebox has a unique barcode which the courier can scan to prove they were there.
This can make their day quicker and easier, allowing them to get onto the next delivery on their journey sooner as the whole process is smooth. Not only is there little to no need to meet with the courier, but depending on the style of parcel box you get, it’s possible to have it, so they don’t even need to go all the way to the door – instead, it can be placed in your driveway as a standalone or built-in directly to the brick of an exterior wall.
Helps to protect their reputation
A courier placing a parcel on the doorstep leaves it exposed to both the elements and potential porch pirates. There is a number of other ways your package could be lost which will surely negatively impact the feedback the courier gets and the delivery company’s resulting reputation.
If you arrive home and find a supposedly delivered package missing or damaged, you’ll likely be straight on the phone to your courier with questions and complaints. Owning a home parcel post box saves you both the headache as it allows your parcels to be hidden from prying eyes and protected from adverse weather.
