  3. We take care of the details: From installation to upkeep, Australia Post takes care of it all.
  4. You earn a fee: Just by having the locker on site.
  5. We drive customers your way: Locker users receive in-app alerts when they’re nearby, bringing more people to your business.

Where can Parcel Lockers go?

  • Apartments and residential buildings

    Gain a competitive advantage over other buildings and offer improved parcel security, plus the option to service residents only.

  • Retail and shopping centres

    Attract new shoppers from outside the area and encourage more visits from existing customers.

  • Offices and commercial buildings

    Offer improved parcel security for tenants and employees, while freeing up mailrooms for important business deliveries.
