Packeta Poland, a global digital e-commerce platform, has launched a new DropYourBox service, which aims to simplify and speed up international shipments for Polish online stores. So far, customers whose location was not on Packeta's forwarding routes independently organized the transport of parcels to the carrier's warehouse, e.g. by sending them to Poczta Polska branches. Currently, thanks to DropYourBox, Packeta will collect parcels from the address indicated by the customer, regardless of their number or direction of shipment. Collections can be made daily, cyclically (e.g. once every 2 days) or on request, which allows the service to be tailored to the individual expectations of each e-commerce store.

– DropYourBox is a response to the growing needs of Polish online stores sending their products abroad. Thanks to the new service, entrepreneurs can focus on business development and key activities, being sure that their parcels are in the best hands from the beginning of the logistics process, i.e. from the first mile – the moment the parcels are shipped. Our end-to-end solution is full logistic support ensuring not only convenience, but also cost and time efficiency – says Joanna Kowalska, Sales Director at Packeta Poland.
Advantages of DropYourBox
The DropYourBox service will significantly improve the daily operations of online stores sending abroad. First of all, it eliminates the need to manage several suppliers – the entire foreign logistics service, from first to last mile, can now be provided by Packeta and settled on one invoice. This optimizes transit time, gives greater control over packages and reduces the total delivery costs incurred by online stores. Different frequency of pickups gives e-shops a lot of freedom and is a good solution for both stable and beginner e-commerce companies sending parcels in the cross-border model.
– End-to-end service in foreign logistics is important for online store owners because it simplifies shipment management and shortens parcel handling time, which is particularly important in the dynamically developing e-commerce industry. The implementation of the DropYourBox service has been long awaited by our customers and we believe that it will also be an argument for new customers to try their hand at foreign markets, e.g. Czech, Slovak or Hungarian – sums up Joanna Kowalska.
Basic principles of the DropYourBox service
#1 Parcels should be packed in collective boxes with maximum dimensions of 41x38x64 cm and weighing up to 25 kg. The number of boxes is unlimited.
#2 Collective cartons are collected by courier. The e-store can also deliver them to a selected collection point operated by InPost.
#3 Labels are sent by Packeta.
#4 Customer visits can be made daily, periodically (e.g. every 2 days) or on request – depending on the customer's needs and expectations. Ad hoc orders must be placed by 11.00 for pickup on the same day.
#5 Collections are made on business days, Monday to Friday.
DropYourBox is another Packety service supporting online stores in cross-border activities and everyday logistics operations. The service is provided in cooperation with InPost.
