InPost lockers can work without a pre-printed label if you use their app and have a QR code. Here's how:
- Generating the QR Code: When sending a parcel, generate a QR code through the InPost mobile app.
- Scanning the QR Code: At the InPost locker, scan the QR code using the scanner provided.
- Locker Opens: A locker door will open automatically.
- Placing the Parcel: Place your parcel inside the open locker.
- Closing the Door: Close the locker door securely.
What happens to the label?
- Courier Applies the Label: After you deposit your parcel, InPost couriers will apply a shipping label to it when they collect it from the locker. You do not need to print and attach a label yourself.
Alternative Scenario (Shop Assistance):
- In some cases, especially if you're dropping off a parcel at a shop that hosts an InPost locker, the staff at the shop might scan the QR code for you and take the parcel. They ensure it gets into the InPost system.
In summary, the QR code acts as a digital identifier, replacing the need for a pre-printed label. The InPost system handles the label application later in the shipping process.
