Parcelboxes for those, who shop online We take care of your mail 1
A story about you Your parcel mailbox is one of the first things that your guests, neighbours and passers-by notice about your home. With its form and functionality, your parcel mailbox also tells a little story about you, its owner: If you have a parcel mailbox, it means that you have embraced the modern and flexible shopping opportunities available on the internet and that you use them regularly! 2
... told by your parcel mailbox MEFA offers a wide range of parcel mailboxes and we are able to offer freedom of choice by continuing to develop new types and designs. Our parcel mailboxes are as diverse as the people who use them. This brochure gives you an overview of the options available to you when choosing a parcel mailbox to perfectly suit you and the volume of mail and parcels you receive. For further information about MEFA s parcel mailboxes, their location, installation and maintenance, please visit our website, me-fa.com. Have fun! MEFA 3
Plenty of room for your mail and parcels A parcel mailbox offers fl exibility when you receive larger volumes of mail and parcels. If you are one of the many who do their shopping online, then a parcel mailbox is the right solution for you. Your MEFA parcel mailbox is a future-proof solution and makes life easier both for yourself and for the delivery company. For example, the postman will not have to return your parcel to the depot because the parcel mailbox can hold the vast majority of smaller parcels that you receive. So, regardless of whether you are buying books, fi lms, music, contact lenses, spare parts, clothes or tools online, you can receive your delivery even when you are not at home. The postman is able to drop off your parcel at the fi rst attempt, and you avoid that trip to the post offi ce. The parcel mailbox is also handy if you are often away on holiday, for example. It can hold mail, advertising mail and newspapers for several days, so you do not have to make arrangements with neighbours, friends or family to empty your mailbox. And you prevent unwanted guests from seeing an overfi lled mailbox as a sign that you are not at home. 4
Your parcels are in a safe place Security is important when you receive parcels. That is why MEFA s parcel mailboxes have been designed and manufactured in a way that fully meets your requirements for security, e.g. in the choice of materials, construction and locking. You can safely let the parcel mailbox look after your post, from the moment it is delivered until you come home and empty your mailbox. MEFA s parcel mailboxes are sturdy, and when they are fi tted properly (read about installation on page 14) they offer all the protection that you need. With most MEFA parcel mailboxes you can choose between a twist lock or a MEFA security lock. And fi nally, MEFA parcel mailboxes are designed so that it is impossible to retrieve the parcels after they have been deposited. 5
How much space do you need? Parcel mailboxes are designed for people who receive larger quantities of mail and parcels. But different people have different space requirements. MEFA therefore lets you choose from a wide range of parcel mailboxes in different sizes: From the smallest box, an extra spacious mailbox with a large slot, to the largest box, a distinctive free-standing parcel mailbox holding up to 56 litres. It even has separate slots for mail and parcels. With MEFA s parcel mailboxes you can receive parcel deliveries several times a day. So whether you are expecting parcels from one or more suppliers, they will always be able to drop off their deliveries. Baggrund kommer 6
Free-standing or mounted? You decide! MEFA s free-standing parcel mailboxes rise out of the ground like functional sculptures. The design is both powerful and elegant at the same time and with a strong emphasis on space, security and tried and tested quality capable of managing daily use year after year. If you prefer a parcel mailbox designed to be mounted, then the MEFA Magnum is the product for you. One of the advantages is that you can mount the MEFA Magnum on a MEFA pole or directly onto a wall, for example. Quick and easy mounting without concrete!
