InPost is one of Europe's most innovative parcel companies, best known for its Paczkomat automated parcel machine (APM) network - the dense grid of orange locker boxes found across Polish cities, UK high streets, and European urban centres. Rather than waiting at home for a delivery, InPost customers pick up their parcel at any time from a nearby locker using a code sent by SMS or app. This guide explains InPost tracking, the locker delivery process, and how to use the InPost app.
