Professionals: how to receive your supplies and stock 24/7 without staff?
For a tradesperson on a site, a restaurateur during a break, or a professional in a consultation, receiving supplies is a logistical headache. Having to interrupt your activity to welcome a courier or, worse, missing a crucial delivery, directly impacts your productivity and turnover.
How can you transform your doorstep into an autonomous delivery point operational 24/7? Here are the solutions to automate your inbound logistics.
1. Free yourself from courier time constraints
B2B delivery rounds often span long time windows. As a professional, you cannot remain stuck waiting for a parcel. Setting up a secure reception "hub" allows carriers to drop off your goods early in the morning or late at night, even if your premises are closed.
2. The logistics hub: a secure solution without staff
Installing a large-format parcel locker outside your establishment or workshop allows you to delegate reception. The courier uses a specific code or authorised access to drop off your stock. No more need to mobilise an employee to "wait for the delivery": your business becomes accessible without a human presence.
Boks Pro: Your business butler
Boks solutions allow professionals to secure their reception of stock, spare parts, or urgent documents. Thanks to the keypad and authorised digital access, couriers drop your parcels into a robust locker, protected from the weather and theft.

One of the major advantages of a connected solution for a pro is traceability. Via the Boks app, you know exactly what time the courier arrived. You can also generate permanent codes for trusted regular suppliers, ensuring that only authorised partners access your outdoor storage space.
4. Profitability: calculate the cost of a missed delivery
Between redelivery fees, time spent chasing a parcel at the depot, and the impossibility of finishing a job due to missing parts, the cost of poor logistics is high. Investment in a parcel locker is generally amortised in a few months thanks to time saved and the elimination of unnecessary travel.
5. Improved customer service
For certain activities (repair, maintenance), the Boks can also serve as a "click & collect" point: you leave a part or document for your client, who picks it up with a code whenever they wish, even after closing hours. It is a premium service that sets your business apart.
Summary: Automating reception is no longer reserved for large logistics platforms. By equipping your business with a Boks solution, you gain freedom, security, and operational efficiency.
