A parcel box is a secure, weather-resistant container for receiving deliveries at your home or business. It protects parcels from theft, damage, and bad weather while giving couriers a safe drop-off point.
When you’re not home, couriers place parcels inside the box, which locks automatically. Your delivery stays secure until you unlock it to collect.
Yes! Our optional Parcel2U HP03W Box Sensor is the ultimate delivery companion. It instantly alerts you via the Smart Life app when a parcel has been safely placed inside your parcel box — no matter where you are. It works with any parcel box, connects directly to your Wi-Fi (no hub required), and even monitors for unexpected movement for extra peace of mind.
Consider your average delivery size, how often you receive parcels, and the number of people in your household. If unsure, choose a slightly larger model for flexibility.
