New Solar-Powered Post Boxes in Hampshire

Royal Mail has introduced new, futuristic post boxes in Hampshire as part of a major redesign.

The new post boxes, totaling 3,500 across the UK, feature solar panels and a barcode scanner, allowing customers to deposit small and large parcels.

The redesign aims to help Royal Mail keep up with growing competition and demand in the delivery sector, following a fine for not meeting delivery targets.

No comment from Royal Mail about the exact timeline for the rollout.
