It’s XS-mas time

Merry XS-mas

The holiday season is here, and with it comes the joy (and occasional stress) of gift-giving. Whether you’re ordering presents to your local lockers or dropping off your last-minute parcels, we’re here to make your parcel experience a jolly one. 🎄✨ 

XS compartments for extra small surprises 

Did you know that InPost Lockers now feature XS compartments? These are the perfect size for sending smaller gifts like envelopes, paperback books, small accessories, or festive trinkets. Measuring just 4x23x40cm, these compartments are designed with your bite-sized parcels in mind. 

If you’re unsure whether your parcel will fit, don’t worry! There’s no need to jam your parcels in, if the XS size turns out to be too small, our system has you covered. Simply tap the screen on the locker and select “My parcel doesn’t fit” to change your compartment size. 

At the locker just close the compartment door without your parcel inside and tap the button below:

Drop off your parcels by December 18th 

Santa’s sleigh may have magic, but for InPost deliveries to make it under the tree in time, we need to make sure our elves (couriers) have enough time. To ensure your parcels arrive by Christmas Day, please drop them off by Monday, December 18th. This way, your gifts will have plenty of time to make their way to their destinations, bringing festive cheer just in time.

How to use InPost this Festive Season 

🎁 Returning your items 

Sometimes, the jumper isn’t quite your style or the gift idea didn’t hit the mark or maybe your Black Friday treat was a disaster. No worries - InPost makes holiday returns as simple. 

  1. Create your QR code: Start your return with your retailer and select InPost as your return option. We’ll email you an email in a flash. 

  2. Check for space: Before heading out, make sure there’s room at your chosen locker. Some locations are super popular as Santa’s sleigh stops, so checking availability will make sure there’s space for your parcel. 

  3. Scan your code: At the locker, hold your phone about 15cm from the scanner with the brightness up. Pick the smallest compartment your parcel fits into. Only big compartments left? No problem - use one without any extra cost. 

  4. Drop off your parcel: When the locker door pops open, pop your parcel inside and close the door.  

  5. Track your return: That’s it! Follow your parcel's journey via the app or our Tracking page while you sip on some mulled wine. 🍷
