Startup of the Week - PostBoxed
by Startacus Admin
We’ve all been there.Ordered something online, patiently waited for it to arrive and then we miss the delivery. We open the front door and rather than our coveted item lying waiting in the hallway, we find a card from the postman or courier explaining where said item now is. Of course whilst we might be lucky and find a friendly neighbour has accepted the delivery on our behalf, it’s more likely that we’ll have to make a trip and go collect it at the delivery office ourselves.
A chore that perhaps we can well do without.
It can be even worse though if we’ve ordered a gift for someone and they’re the ones who have to do the collecting!
It’s a problem which our latest Startup of the Week is on a mission to address.
PostBoxed is a new online gift retailer which sells and delivers hand-wrapped small gifts directly to your door. The best bit?
The gifts that they sell are all letterbox friendly!
Whether it’s for a birthday, anniversary or Christmas, you’ll find something here to suit.
The platform features an extensive array of quality gifts - from homeware items through to jewellery. All items are sourced from both recognisable and independent brands and they all reflect both individuality and quality. Gifts arrive, fully wrapped, with an accompanying custom-made gift card.
Most importantly though - they all arrive in the recipient’s home - perfect gifts that are the perfect size to fit through the letterbox!
What’s not to love about that?
Check out the PostBoxed site for details on the full range of gifts they sell.
We’re sure you’ll find something you like.
We did!
