Product Information

Full details

The iParcelBox (Large, Battery) is designed for busy households and individuals who frequently receive deliveries and seek enhanced security and convenience. Its primary benefit is ensuring parcels are safely stored and protected from weather until you return, eliminating missed deliveries and providing peace of mind. A potential caveat is its reliance on battery power for smart features, requiring periodic charging or connection to mains power.

FAQs

How do couriers interact with the iParcelBox?

Delivery drivers simply press the button on the front of the iParcelBox. The first delivery is accepted automatically. For subsequent deliveries, the box notifies you via the app, allowing remote unlocking.

What is the capacity of the large iParcelBox?

The iParcelBox Large offers a substantial 75-litre capacity, suitable for multiple packages, grocery deliveries, or larger items.

How is the iParcelBox powered?

It is powered by rechargeable batteries. You also have the option to connect it to mains power for continuous operation, ensuring it's always ready.

Do I need a special app for the courier?

No, the iParcelBox is designed for simplicity. Couriers do not need any special apps or codes; they interact directly with the box.

What happens if the battery runs out?

If the battery runs out and it's not connected to mains power, the smart features will cease to function, and it will behave like a standard locked box. You will need to recharge the battery or connect to mains power.

Is the iParcelBox secure against theft?

Yes, it is constructed from durable steel and includes fixings to securely anchor it to the floor or wall, significantly deterring theft.

Can I use it for signed-for deliveries?

Yes, a unique barcode is located inside the lid. Drivers can scan this barcode as proof of delivery for signed-for parcels.

Troubleshooting

iParcelBox not connecting to Wi-Fi

Ensure your Wi-Fi network is operational. Restart your router and the iParcelBox. Verify you are entering the correct Wi-Fi password and that the box is within router range.

App not receiving delivery notifications

Check your smartphone's notification settings to ensure alerts are enabled for the iParcelBox app. Verify the iParcelBox is connected to Wi-Fi and powered on. Ensure the app is running in the background.

Courier cannot open the iParcelBox

Confirm the iParcelBox is powered on and connected. Ensure the courier is pressing the correct button. If a previous delivery was made, the box may be in a waiting state; restart the process by having the courier press the button again.

Battery life is shorter than expected

Ensure the battery is fully charged. Frequent remote access or unstable Wi-Fi connection can reduce battery life. Consider connecting to mains power for continuous operation if battery life is a concern.

Parcels are not staying dry

Confirm the iParcelBox is securely closed and latched after each delivery. Check for any damage to the seals or casing that might allow water ingress.
