Please come to pick up your parcel only after you have received the pickup notification from 24/7 PARCEL, not the carriers, because we are not able to search for a particular parcel before it is checked in. Nomrally parcels are checked in on the same day of delivery (during staffed hours), but there are times that we need an extra day to process them all.
Customers must have accounts created and unique customer ID number included in shipping address prior to shipping to any of our locations. Customers must sign up online.

At 24/7 PARCEl, there is no annual fee to pay.

How to pay
You can purchase credit in person with cash (no minimum amount) or online with credit card at 247parcel.com (minimum $10). No other method of online payment will be accepted, including PayPal money transfer. Each time you pick up a parcel, the parcel receiving fee is automatically deducted from your credit balance. Your credit balance must be equal to or higher than the parcel receiving fee. Otherwise, the automated parcel locker will not deliver your parcel. When your credit balance is below a certain threshold, we will send an email notification to remind you to purchase more credit.
If you are picking up during staffed hours, you do not need to purchase credit in advance. You can pay the exact parcel receiving fee in cash at the counter.
Storage fee
The parcels are stored free of charge for a period of seven (7) days (i.e. 168 hours) from the time the parcel is checked in. After the first seven (7) days, a $0.50/day per parcel storage fee will be applied.
Mislabeled fee
There is a $2.50 mislabeled fee for parcels that are mislabeled, e.g. missing customer ID number, incorrect receipient name. Parcels that are mislabeled require extra handling, and as such a mislabeled fee will apply.
Oversize parcel
If your parcel does not fit in the currently available lockers, the parcel will be placed on the shelves, and we will send you an email notification, informing you that you need to pick it up during staffed hours with a photo ID. Please note the seven (7) day grace period of free storage (14 days for Niagara Falls) will start on the time when the parcel is checked in. If you want to pick up the oversize parcel(s) outside our staffed hours, please request the Storage Room (below).
We do not accept any parcels that can't fit through a standard size door or weigh more than 100 lbs. No pallet shipments.
Storage room
If your parcel is placed on the shelf, and you need to pick it up outside our staffed hours, you can request to have your parcel(s) transferred to the storage room, and we will leave the storage room key in a locker for you. The fee for using the storage room is $3 regardless of the number of parcels. You can request to use the storage room via My Account at 247parcel.com.
Parcels left in the locker
If you have multiple parcels in the same locker and choose to leave any one in the locker, please reply to the parcel arrival email with the locker number, and we will check the left-over parcel in as a new parcel the next business day, and you will receive a new pickup code.
Parcels in the same the locker
By default, we always check in the parcels in the same locker for the same customer to minimize the number of pickup codes. If you would like us to separate them in different locker, please reply to the parcel arrival email *prior* to your pickup, so we can relocate the parcel in separate lockers.
Refuse or return parcel
If you want us to refuse your unopened parcels, we can give it to the carrier free of charge. However, the normal receiving fee will be deducted as the parcel needs to be checked out of the system. In addition, if your the parcel is not in ready to ship state or requires the printing of shipping label, the service fee is $5 per parcel.
Alternative pickup person
If your parcel is placed in the automated parcel locker, you can give the 6-digit code to your family or friends, so they can pick up the parcel for you 24/7 daily, 365 days a year. If your parcel is not in the automated parcel locker (e.g. oversize or missing customer ID), only you and people on your authorized list can pick up the parcel with a picture ID during staffed hours.
Letter Mail
It is against our company policy to use your parcel account for as mailbox address, such as credit card or bank account. If you wish to use our address for credit card or bank address, please sign up for a mailbox. Credit/bank letter mail will not be released until a customer has a valid mailbox account.
Parcels more than 30 days (overdue)
If you have only one parcel or letter and it is not picked up after 30 days, it will be disposed. If you have multiple parcels, the overdue parcels will be left in the system, and the storage fee for any overdue parcels will continue to incur. However, we reserve the right to check out any overdue parcels as part of the system maintenance. There will be a $5 service fee to search and retrieve your parcels/letters that have been in our store for more than 30 days.
