Better to protect the environment than stand in line for parcels

Everyone knows it: the parcel carrier comes exactly when you are not at home.

Environmentally conscious online shoppers who no longer want to miss a parcel simply have their parcels delivered to a public pakadoo parcel station near them or to a pakadoo point at their employer.

This also pleases the environment and the parcel drivers, who can deliver many parcels there together instead of driving to individual households.

Save ways, save time, save the environment

Shopping online is super convenient. But unfortunately, the convenience often stops when it comes to parcel delivery if you’re not at home during the day. Then you have to pick up your parcels from a neighbor or even worse, stand in line at a post office. This is not only a nuisance, but also causes additional journeys and thus even more CO2 emissions.

But there is a better solution: simply have your parcels delivered to a public pakadoo parcel locker or to a pakadoo point at your company.

Your employer doesn’t know about pakadoo yet? Then simply make them aware of our service – all the info is here:

Receive parcels at parcel lockers

In some cities there are public pakadoo parcel lockers, where shipments of all parcel services can be picked up. To do this, the parcels are simply sent to a parcel depot and from there brought to the respective parcel locker with zero emissions.

Many companies officially offer their employees to have private parcels sent to work with pakadoo. This means that everything is legally regulated and you can take your parcels home directly after work.

Save trips and CO2

With pakadoo, there are no more wasted delivery attempts and the parcels arrive exactly where you want them. Many individual deliveries are bundled and often delivered together with business parcels. That makes for less traffic and CO2 emissions.

Return your parcels conveniently

Returns are also accepted at many pakadoo points and parcel lockers. This is not only super convenient, but also environmentally friendly, because the returns are then taken by the parcel service when it delivers new parcels.

Sustainability

Receiving parcels – with pakadoo it can also be sustainable

Did you know that every parcel delivered to a pakadoo point in companies or to a pakadoo parcel locker saves up to 924 g of CO2?*

This is because parcels are no longer delivered individually to private households, but can be delivered in bundles – often together with business parcels. What’s more, there is always someone at the pakadoo points and parcel depots who can accept the parcels and there are no more futile delivery attempts.

But how much CO2 does a parcel actually cause? You can find an overview of different delivery options here:

How to pakadoo – this is how easy it works

pakadoo makes your life easier because you can use it to receive and return your parcels at any time at a public pakadoo parcel locker or officially directly in your office. Becoming a pakadoo user is just as simple:

  1. Check whether there is a public pakadoo parcel locker in your area or whether your company has already set up a pakadoo point for employees.
  2. Register HERE and receive your personal PAK ID. From now on, this ID can be used for every checkout process in online stores together with the address of your pakadoo point or the corresponding parcel depot. This way your parcels will arrive at your pakadoo point or parcel locker – independent of the store and parcel service provider.
  3. As soon as a newly arrived parcel is scanned at the pakadoo point or stored at the parcel locker, you will receive an e-mail notification or a push message with a code or TAN as well as a compartment number. With this you can pick up your parcel at your pakadoo point or parcel locker. Returns can also be dropped off at many pakadoo points and pakadoo parcel lockers.
