bp preps InPost automated parcel lockers roll-out across its UK service stations

Automated parcel machine (APM) service provider, InPost, reports that, after a trial, its lockers will be rolled out at approximately 300 bp service stations across the UK.

Prominent locations include Wandsworth, Glasgow, Ashford and Brentwood.

As a result, consumers will be able to collect a delivery whilst filling up with fuel, or return a parcel when picking up something for dinner at a forecourt M&S Food store.

As part of the trial thousands of parcels have been processed across five locations.

Michael Rouse, CEO at InPost International, comments: “People are always looking for ways to inject ease and convenience into their lives, and the introduction of InPost lockers to bp retail sites offers exactly that.”

“With increasingly busy lives, shoppers can incorporate collecting, returning and sending their parcels into their journeys to work and beyond. It’s fantastic to be able to implement a practical and useful out of home delivery solution into local communities up and down the country.”

Sonya Adams, VP Mobility and Convenience Retail UK, says: “We know how precious time is for our customers and we are always looking for strong, compelling offers to meet their mobility and convenience needs — and make their lives that little bit easier.”

“This trial has shown that customers on the move are looking for delivery solutions and I’m excited to see the roll-out of InPost lockers starting across our UK network of great roadside locations.”
