How do you collect a parcel from a parcel locker?
The option to collect a parcel from an automated locker must be selected when making a purchase in an online store. The recipient is notified each time that the shipment has been delivered and is waiting in the parcel locker. They can track the shipment beforehand using the tracking code. From the moment the notification is received, the recipient has forty-eight hours to collect the parcel.
The SMS notification contains an individual numerical code that is necessary to collect the shipment. This code must be entered on the parcel locker panel together with the phone number. Once this condition is met, the appropriate compartment containing the shipment will open.
How do you send a parcel from a parcel locker?
Sending a parcel from a parcel locker may seem more difficult than collecting one, but a single attempt is enough to get used to the procedure. And it is really simple. All you have to do is follow the instructions on the parcel locker panel step by step, entering the parcel size, its weight, and the sender's and recipient's details. You can conveniently pay for sending the parcel by card. Once the transaction has been registered, the parcel locker will make an appropriate compartment available, where you will need to place the parcel.
It is also possible to send a shipment using the Parcel Manager. To do this, you need to log in to inpost.pl and create the appropriate account. After topping it up with the selected amount, you can send parcels. Simply select the “Send shipments” option, complete and print the appropriate label, and then attach it to the parcel. A parcel prepared this way can also be sent using a parcel locker. The appropriate parcel locker must be indicated during registration. Sending a shipment prepared using the Parcel Manager is very easy: simply scan the parcel number and enter the shipment code generated on the label. Then place the parcel in the appropriate compartment.
The Parcel Manager will also be useful if, for some reason, it is impossible to pay by card for sending a shipment from a parcel locker. In such a case, after entering the phone number, the system will register the shipment in the Parcel Manager and send a verification code to the phone number. Once the sender has been verified, it will be possible to complete the parcel dispatch, and the appropriate amount will be deducted from the account.
InPost mobile app
The InPost mobile app is a nod to enthusiasts of new technologies. It can be used both when sending and collecting parcels from a parcel locker and when using courier services. The app allows users to track parcels, notifies them about shipments waiting in parcel lockers, helps them locate them on a city map, and guides them there by the shortest route. It is also possible to share information about parcels with other users and track their shipments. Parcel sharing offers a tangible benefit: the parcel can be collected by another trusted person. The app sends a reminder about waiting shipments when the recipient is a short distance from the parcel locker.
