What options do we have for sending a parcel?
It sometimes happens that we need to send something, for example to family or friends who live in another part of the country. It is also not uncommon for us to want to return goods that have not met our expectations to an online shop. Courier services are therefore indispensable to us on a daily basis. Which one to choose? Let's find out about the types of parcel delivery:
-
Paczkomat
They are located at shopping centres and near favourite food markets. They can also be found at petrol stations and other popular locations. They can be found in large cities, smaller towns and even in the countryside. We are, of course, talking about the popular Paczkomats, which are innovative devices for self-picking up and sending parcels. They are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week - no wonder they have become so popular. How much does it cost to send a parcel by Parcel Machine? This is another advantage of these modern machines. Sending a parcel using them does not generate large charges. We can certainly say that this is one of the cheapest parcel options available on the market today. Price of sending a parcel in a Parcel Machine starts from as little as PLN 12.99. It is worth remembering that as many as 98% of orders reach InPost machines in one day. Sending by Parcel Machine is therefore not only financially advantageous, but also ensures express delivery! Remember that a Parcel Machine parcel must have the correct dimensions:

Courier parcel
There is no more convenient way to send a parcel than by courier - we don't even have to leave the house. All we need to do is prepare the parcel properly, protecting its contents well against any possible damage. Next, you need to log in to the Parcel Manager system, and in the "Send parcels" panel, enter the exact details of the recipient along with the dimensions of the parcel. The next step is to generate a label - Parcel Manager will tell you the cost of sending the parcel. You will pay for the shipment thanks to the funds available in the system. Finally, simply click: "Pay, print and send". The label you have created needs to be printed and affixed to the parcel. Once the contents have been packed, you can order courier who will come to your address and collect your parcel. You can check the costs for different sizes here: https://inpost.pl/cenniki

Posting at a Parcel Post Office (POP)
Another option for sending a parcel is to use a Parcel Service Point. This is an excellent choice for people who value their independence and do not want to wait for a courier. By choosing a drop-off point in a specific location, you can send your parcel, for example on your way to work, university or an appointment. You can send your parcel efficiently and get back to your daily routine - without wasting time standing in long queues. The Parcel Service Point functions as a local warehouse. This is where parcels which are not collected at Paczkomat InPost go. They are stored for 2 working days. If the recipient does not turn up to collect the parcel, it will be put back in the machine.
