The green sign reads “Please don’t leave empty boxes here. Bring them to the bin outside”

      You can send and receive parcels at any time you like without them being stolen from your doorstep, and it helps to reduce the workload of the understaffed counter.

        So what, they’re just lying there and anyone can take them?

        Here you either go to the till and they give you the parcel and you leave. Or there’s a lockbox which you can retrieve it and leave.

          Yes, by self-service I mean an automated lockerbox. What you see in the picture is when people retrieve their parcel from the lockerbox, rip it open, and just leave the cardboard box there.
