Royal Mail InPost is a parcel locker service provided by Royal Mail, the UK's largest postal service. Here's an overview:

What is Royal Mail InPost?

Royal Mail InPost is a network of secure, self-service parcel lockers located in convenient locations across the UK. These lockers allow customers to collect and return parcels at a time that suits them, 24/7.

How does it work?

  1. When a parcel is sent to a Royal Mail InPost locker, the recipient receives an email or text notification with a unique locker number and access code.
  2. The recipient can then visit the locker location and use the access code to open the locker and collect their parcel.
  3. If the parcel is too large to fit in the locker, the recipient can use a special key to access a larger locker or arrange for a redelivery.
