If you've ever come home to find a parcel missing from your doorstep, you may be wondering how to stop your parcels being stolen.
The search ‘stolen parcel’ has increased over 500% since last year, with the term ‘parcel stolen from doorstep’ growing almost daily (Google Trends).
With more people shopping online, parcels are regularly being delivered when nobody is home. A package left on your doorstep can be an easy target for opportunistic thieves. Police advice recommends using secure delivery options, tracking deliveries and arranging for parcels to be received safely. (South Wales Police)
One of the easiest ways to protect your deliveries is with a parcel post box.
Use a Secure Parcel Box
A parcel delivery box gives delivery drivers a dedicated place to leave your packages instead of leaving them exposed outside your front door.
A good outdoor parcel box can help protect your deliveries from theft, bad weather and being left in unsuitable locations.
It is particularly useful if you:
- Work away from home
- Receive regular online deliveries
- Live on a busy road
- Don't want parcels left with neighbours
- Regularly miss your delivery driver
Instead of your parcel being left on the doorstep, it can be placed inside your lockable parcel box, ready for you to collect when you're home.
Why Choose a Parcel Delivery Box?
A secure parcel delivery box means you don't have to arrange your day around your deliveries.
Your courier has somewhere obvious to leave your parcel, while you have peace of mind knowing your packages aren't sitting in full view.
When choosing a parcel box for your home, look for:
- Secure locking to help prevent unauthorised access
- Weather-resistant construction for outdoor use
- Enough capacity for the parcels you normally receive
- Easy courier access
- Strong, durable construction
The right parcel box for your house can become a permanent solution for safer home deliveries.
