With Black Friday and Cyber Monday creeping up on us, the big question we\u2019re all thinking is \u2026 how will I accept my Black Friday delivery If I’m unavailable?<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

With consumers following government advice by working and staying at home, they have no other option than to shop online. Not only that, but some may be fed up of being constantly interrupted by couriers and with the volume of Black Friday deals, its inevitable parcel deliveries will increase, meaning more disruptions for you.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Increase in Black Friday 2020 Online Shopping<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

With Black Friday around the corner, some consumers may be shocked at the volume of deliveries hitting their doorstep. If you\u2019ve got a house of four you\u2019ll likely have a parcel a day and with Black Friday offers on top of that, you could potentially see 6 or 7 parcels a day. Additionally, let’s not forget about the neighbours. If they aren’t in will their courier ask if you’ll accept those too?<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

On Black Friday you can imagine how many parcels you could potentially have coming straight to your house. If you\u2019re at home, great, but consider how many times you\u2019ll be disturbed in one day. Alternatively, if you\u2019re not in, be prepared to find them left in the bin, bush or even on your doorstep. Parcels are left vulnerable to theft more often than you may think, but how can shoppers prevent this?<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The External Post Box<\/a><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
