There’s no place like out-of-home
24 Sept 2026
There’s nothing quite like the feeling of a parcel being on its way. The anticipation. The tracking build up.
But there’s one thing we could all do without: waiting at home for it.
Because life doesn’t happen neatly between 8am and 6pm. You’ve got work, plans, school runs, gym sessions, coffee dates, dog walks, and approximately 47 other things going on.
So why not send your deliveries somewhere that works around you?
No waiting in. No doorbell drama. No problem.
With InPost, you can have your eligible deliveries sent straight to an InPost Locker instead of your doorstep.
That means your parcel is waiting for you - rather than you waiting for your parcel.
And with 16,000 lockers across the UK, there’s a good chance there’s one somewhere handy for your daily routine.
Pick it up when it suits you
Most InPost Lockers are open 24/7, so you can collect your parcel when it fits into your day.
Early morning? Go for it. Lunch break? Why not. On your way home? Parcel sorted.
No rushing back before the delivery driver arrives. No sitting by the window wondering if “out for delivery” actually means “out for delivery today”.
You've got 72 hours to collect your parcel on your terms.
Your parcel gets a safe spot
Your parcel stays securely tucked away in a locker until you’re ready to collect it.
No worrying about it sitting on the doorstep. No hoping the weather behaves itself. And no discovering your parcel has had an unexpected encounter with a rain cloud. Plus, it's safe to say too many of us have been victims of porch pirates. 💔
Give yourself back your day
Sending deliveries to a locker means you can get on with your life.
No missed deliveries. No rearranging your plans. No waiting around for the doorbell.
Just collect your parcel when you’re already out and about.
Work smarter. Parcel smarter.
Make a locker your go-to
Found a locker that’s perfectly placed for your routine? You can set it as your preferred locker in the InPost app, so eligible future deliveries can head there too.
Your favourite locker, ready and waiting. It’s basically parcel admin on autopilot.
Not a locker person? We’ve got shops too.
And if a locker isn’t quite your thing, don’t worry - we’ve got InPost Shops all over the UK too.
They’re another handy out-of-home option for collecting your deliveries, with lots open late and at weekends.
So whether your nearest InPost spot is a locker, a shop, or somewhere you pass every day, there’s an easy way to keep your parcels out of your living room and firmly in your “I’ll pick that up when I’m out” era.
There’s no place like… out-of-home
Your home is great. Obviously.
But when it comes to deliveries, why make your home the only destination?
With InPost, your parcels can meet you where you already are - making deliveries more convenient, flexible and much less of a “will I, won’t I be in?” situation.
So go on. Give your front door a break. Your parcels have places to be.
After all, there’s no place like out-of-home.
