Cappuccino99 Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 I've just signed up for the MyPost Parcel Locker. Hopefully this will work successfully as I live in an apartment building with nowhere for parcels to be left securely if I'm not home. The nearest Post Office with these lockers is just over the road and open 24/7 so it seems like a great idea. Has anybody used this method successfully or any problems?

vickyplum Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 I use Parcel Lockers. They're a great way of doing things and you get a SMS and email notification, when anything arrives for you. The postal service still remains unreliable but at least there are no excuses not to deliver if you are not at home, etc! Be aware they are only supposed to be for AP deliveries, and anything else (from private delivery companies) will still go to the post office and you'll have to pick up (I haven't experienced this but it's what I've seen on other forums + it's on the AP parcel locker website).

amibovered Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 It's a good idea when it works, I used it a few times, sometimes they'd send a notification, sometimes not, when they didn't there was no way of opening the locker without the code, and customer service couldn't provide one, so I had to wait until the parcel was sent to the nearest post office before I could pick it up.

BooBooBear Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 I have never heard of MyPost Parcel Lockers. Is it a new thing? I rent a Post Office Box. It is completely secure and I can access it 24/7. They accept any size letter or parcel. I once had a push bike delivered there, plus heavy boxes of wine.
