With the festive season well and truly underway, there is still time to get yourself a secure parcel drop box in the UK to receive your Christmas presents while you go about your day, carefree.
This might not turn out to be the festive season we’ve all imagined, but thanks to online shopping and some crafty social distancing measures, we can still make a real go of it.
Online Shopping
Online shopping has skyrocketed since mid-November, with many people preparing early for Christmas. The uncertainty and worry about heading to the high street has led people to forgo it completely and do most of their Christmas shopping in ecommerce stores. Non-essential retail shops have opened in the UK with strict measures in place to appease the public, but most people are still erring on the side of caution, and would rather have their Christmas presents delivered to their homes.
This is the perfect storm for online retailers who are cashing in on the pandemic and doing significantly more business than in previous years. We probably don’t need to tell you this, however. Have you ordered more Christmas presents online this year than previous years?
More Online Shopping = More Deliveries
If your answer was yes to the previous questions, then you have probably also worried about when the packages will arrive and if you will be there to receive them. With more online shopping come more problems, in fact. Even for large online retailers such as Amazon and Asos, this swift uptick in the number of packages to be delivered can cause logistical problems that can result in longer and more uncertain package delivery times.
When couriers have more packages to deliver in a shorter time period, mistakes can happen. When they have so much to get done, it might seem appropriate to them to save time by leaving the package on the front doorstep rather than taking the proper precautions and handing it to a neighbour, or coming back another day.
There is Still Time to Get a Secure Parcel Box
If you want to join the millions of people who have taken their freedom into their own hands and purchased a secure parcel drop box, you’ve come here just at the right time.
