Before we dive into how to open an Australia Post parcel locker, let’s first talk about how to arrange for delivery to a parcel locker. When you order a package online, you’ll have the option to select a parcel locker as your delivery address. You can choose the locker that’s most convenient for you, and Australia Post will send your package there.

Once your package has been delivered to the locker, you’ll receive a unique one-time PIN via text or email. This PIN is what you’ll use to open the locker and retrieve your package.

Once you’ve found the locker, enter your one-time PIN on the touchscreen display located on the locker’s front panel.
The locker door will automatically open, revealing your package inside.
Take your package and close the locker door.

It’s that simple! Just make sure to retrieve your package within 48 hours, or it will be returned to the sender.
