Do They Know It’s XS-mas Time at All?
27 Nov 2025
Because the tiniest gifts deserve the biggest spotlight.
The festive season has arrived - cue the cosy nights, twinkly lights, and the annual mission of getting gifts where they need to go (ideally before the last mince pie disappears). Whether you're sending thoughtful tokens or picking up surprise presents from your local locker, we’re here to make every parcel drop-off smooth, speedy and stress-free.
And this year, we’re shining a big festive light on something very small…
🎁 Introducing… the star of X-mas: XS compartments
Yes, we have a present for you - because InPost Lockers now include XS compartments, designed specifically for your tiniest treasures.
Think:
✨ Envelopes
✨ Jewellery and accessories
✨ Paperback books
✨ Small handmade gifts
✨ Stocking-fillers and festive trinkets
All perfectly sized for our extra-small compartments at 4 × 23 × 40 cm. So when your parcel is more petite pressie than bulky box, XS is where the magic happens.
This year, do your gifts know it’s XS-mas time at all? Make sure your mini moments of joy land in the right size slot!
🎄 If your parcel doesn’t fit… don’t panic (or push!)
We love festive enthusiasm, but there’s no need to wedge your parcel in like stuffing in a Christmas turkey.
If XS isn’t the right size, just tap “My parcel doesn't fit” on the locker screen and it’ll offer you the next suitable compartment - easy.
Here's a reminder of locker compartment sizes:
- Extra small lockers (4cm x 23cm x 40cm)
Small lockers (8cm x 38cm x 64cm)
Medium lockers (19cm x 38cm x 64cm)
Large lockers (41cm x 38cm x 64cm)
🎅 Send by December 20th for Christmas delivery
Our couriers are magical, but even they can’t outpace Santa’s sleigh on Christmas Eve. To make sure your parcels make it under the tree in time, please drop them off by Saturday 20th December.
That gives our elves plenty of time to get everything where it needs to go.
