HomeValet launches contactless 24/7 online delivery solution
HomeValet has made its new Smart Box and app available for pre-order.
The contactless 24/7 delivery solution will first be offered to eligible Walmart InHome customers in select participating regions this January, with wider availability announced in early 2022.
Offering a temperature controlled and internet connected outdoor receptacle, the Smart Box enables unattended delivery of fresh groceries and packages directly to consumers’ front door steps.
Through HomeValet’s mobile app and subscription service, consumers will be able to customise, manage, monitor, and remotely control their Smart Boxes.
“The rapidly maturing e-commerce market exposed a vital need for increased package security and food safety in supply chain last mile delivery to consumer homes, which HomeValet is designed to solve,” says John Simms, HomeValet Founder and CEO.
“By connecting consumers, retailers and couriers to a secure end-point outside consumers’ homes, we enable automated delivery of packages, groceries and other goods, and reduce consumers’ time burdens of home delivery and offer convenience and freedom, avoidance of logistics issues and capture large scale efficiencies improving the home delivery experience for consumers and retailers.”
Smart Boxes are available for pre-order on HomeValet’s website with an initial down payment of $50 to reserve.
Pricing varies by design with a variety of customisable styles offered and financing options provided through Affirm.
The HomeValet app is also now downloadable in the App Store and Google Play Store for a monthly subscription of $15.
