Parcels, Postboxes, and Proof of Posting
With over 110,000 available around the UK, Postboxes are ideally suited for a quick and easy local drop off option for your parcels. Available 24/7 for your convenience.
There are two main types of Postboxes that can be used to drop off parcels:
- If your parcel is up to a maximum size of 45cm x 35cm x 16cm, then our Parcel Postboxes are the perfect solution for your medium sized parcels!
- Our Regular Postboxes are not just for letters! They're a great drop off option for your small parcels (if they can fit through a letterbox). We’d recommend your parcel is no thicker than 45 x 200 x 250mm. Our Postboxes come in all shapes and sizes, but most can take a parcel that’s up to 5cm thick and 20cm wide and some will take even larger items.
So why not Buy your postage online via the Royal Mail app, print your label and drop it in to your nearest Postbox.
We can even provide Proof of Posting via our App.
