Kim's story

“There it was again. My package, wet and crumpled, in the middle of the sidewalk.”
I am Kim. Mother of two, work partly from home, and I order online quite often. Not because I am addicted to shopping, but simply: groceries, gifts, stuff for the children. Everything comes to the house.
And that often goes wrong.
Sometimes I'm not home. Then there's a note: "At the neighbors" (who aren't always happy about that), or worse: "To be picked up at the service point". And if it is at the door, it's wet, open or even gone. Not nice, especially when you already have enough on your mind.
Until I discovered something simple
A friend pointed me to a parcel mailbox. Just a sturdy box at your front door where the delivery person puts the parcel. Closed, dry and safe.
Since then? No more stress. No wet boxes, no rounds to neighbors or parcel points. Everything just arrives, when it suits you.
Sounds small, feels big
I always thought these things were mostly for businesses or luxury homes, but now that I have one, I don't know why I didn't get one sooner.
A parcel mailbox fits my current life: busy, digital, on the go. It just gives peace.
No advertising, just my experience. Maybe you can relate to it too.
