InPost has launched InPost Direct – a simple and
more convenient way for small business owners, entrepreneurs, online
marketplace sellers and consumers to send parcels. Available in time for the
busy Christmas shopping period and in response to user demand, people can now
directly access InPost to send one or several parcels from their nearest locker
location on a ‘pay as you go’ basis and without the need to integrate the
solution into their existing web presence.Senders
simply visit inpostdirect.co.uk, enter the weight and size of their parcel,
print off a label and attach it to their parcel. They then drop it off at their
preferred locker where it will be collected, tracked and delivered directly to
the door of friends, family or customers across the UK within 48 hours.
People who want to
dispatch multiple parcels in one go can also make use of the ‘Parcel Manager’
function on the website. Rather than inputting parcel data and addresses
separately into the system, senders can quickly upload an excel document,
automatically enabling all labels to be generated at once. Online marketplace
sellers also have the option to upload their parcel delivery data held on
Amazon and eBay, making the process even more seamless
Jonathan Smith, Chairman of InPost UK, said: “The launch of InPost Direct makes our
24/7/365 automated locker network, the largest of its kind in the UK, even
quicker and more convenient to use. Ultimately, everyone wants a delivery
service that offers flexibility, ease of use and gets parcels to their
destination quickly and securely, particularly during the busy Christmas
period. InPost Direct is an accessible, hassle-free, automated solution for
people who don’t want to wait in a Post Office queue or wait in for a courier.”
InPost’s 1000 fully automated lockers are conveniently
located within five miles of 70% of UK postcodes. Lockers can be found at a
variety of safe and secure locations including at Morrisons supermarkets,
petrol stations, train stations and Transport for London sites, outside
retailers such as Toys R Us and at local shops across the UK. What’s more, all
of InPost’s lockers are accessible 24/7/365, meaning no more queues or waiting
in, enabling consumers to collect and deliver items at their earliest
convenience.
