What is a package delivery box?

A package delivery box is a secure, waterproof container that is usually placed at the door of a home. Couriers can put parcels in it when the recipient is not at home, reducing the risk of parcel theft and helping to better manage parcels.

Design and structure of package delivery box

Package delivery boxes are designed to store parcels until the recipient picks them up safely. These boxes come in different shapes and sizes depending on other needs, and their main features include:

Durable material: Most drop boxes are made of steel, which helps protect parcels from theft, weather conditions, and environmental wear and tear.

Locking mechanism: These boxes usually have a secure lock to prevent unauthorized access. Some require a key, while others use electronic locks that are opened with a password or an app.

Bay design: Many delivery boxes are equipped with multiple bays to allow for multiple packages to be delivered at once. The size of these bays can be adjusted to suit the different sizes of packages.

How does the package delivery box work?

Using a package delivery box is simple and efficient, greatly facilitating the safe delivery and pickup of packages.

Installation: The parcel delivery box is easily accessible to the courier and deemed safe by the homeowner, usually by the front door, driveway, or side of the yard.

Delivery: When the package arrives, the courier will open the delivery box in a manner specified by the homeowner. This may be by using a key, entering a password scanning a QR code, or simply opening the top hatch.

Package placement: The courier places the package in the delivery box, which is closed and locked to ensure that the package remains safe until the homeowner picks it up.

Notification: The courier sends a notification to the recipient, usually via SMS, email, or app notification, to inform them that the package has been delivered.
