What is a parcel locker?
So my packages get delivered to my parents in the suburbs of Chicago because people steal mail like crazy in my building. Well me and my girlfriend ordered 3 separate packages last week, and all of them were supposed to come Monday the 11th. All 3 packages tracking said out for delivery at the same time, and when the mail was delivered today, my girlfriend told me both of her packages were delivered and I checked my tracking and it was still out for delivery. I drove 30 mins to the post office since it’s a smaller suburb and i talked to the supervisor who got ahold of the carrier and said that he missed the package because it’s small but it will get delivered today. A little frustrating but whatever so I drove back to Chicago with my two packages that were delivered. Well I got a text update that it was delivered to a parcel locker? I have no idea what a parcel locker could be as I have no PO Boxes, and it was supposed to be delivered to an address. I’m assuming that the mail carrier just brought it back to the post office and that’s where I have to pick it up? It’s a smaller, upper middle class suburb so there’s just the one post office in my town. Anyone ever see this or dealt with this? I’m going to call them tomorrow since it’s a 30 minute drive but the package says delivered, so it’s somewhere and the mail carrier said he had it on the truck but just missed it. So in my mind the only place it could be would be the post office but I don’t have a key or anything. Very odd, the seller said if I have any issues he’ll send me another package but in my 10 years of shipping and receiving packages I’ve never had this happen.
