Outdoor lockers
You can pick up and send parcels from our outdoor parcel lockers around the clock. Some outdoor lockers operate with the Matkahuolto Paketit app, while others can be used without it.
Outdoor lockers operated with the app
The Matkahuolto Paketit app is easy to use – just follow the app’s instructions to pick up or send your parcel effortlessly.
First, download the Matkahuolto Paketit app
Open the Matkahuolto Parcels app and tap “Open locker”. The app will ask for permission to use Bluetooth. Select “Allow”.
The app will then ask for permission to share your precise location. Select “Allow”.
The locker door opens. Take your parcel and close the locker carefully.
Buy a parcel in the Matkahuolto Paketit app or online. Write the activation code, recipient’s name and phone number on the parcel.
Reserve a locker of suitable size via the “Find a service point or locker” function. The reservation is valid for 12 hours.
When you’re at the outdoor locker and ready to send your parcel, open the parcel details in the app and tap “Open locker”. Place the parcel in the locker and close it carefully.
Outdoor lockers operated without the app
Outdoor lockers operated without the app have a keypad where you can enter the pickup or activation code to collect or send parcels.
Enter the pickup code and press “OK”.
The locker door opens. Take your parcel and close the locker carefully.
Buy a parcel or create an activation code for your return parcel in the Matkahuolto Paketit app or online. Write the activation code, recipient’s name and phone number on the parcel.
When you’re at the outdoor locker and ready to send your parcel, enter the activation code and press “OK”.
The locker door opens. If the locker is too small, you can switch to a larger one by following the on-screen instructions. Place the parcel in the locker and close it carefully.
Find a solution in the frequently asked questions
When you use the Matkahuolto Paketit- app, you’ll receive a push notification on your phone as soon as your parcel arrives. We’ll also try to reach you later via SMS, but the fastest way to stay updated is through the app – and you can also track your parcel’s journey in real time.
If you haven’t received an arrival notification, there may be a typo in your contact information. In that case, always contact the sender directly, as they can correct the error.
Please also check your spam folders. Some phone models may have a separate spam folder for text messages.
If the parcel has already started to return, it’s best to arrange the matter directly with the sender.
It is most likely that your phone number and/or e-mail address is missing from the shipment information, which we use to verify that the parcel being delivered truly belongs to you. Please check that your profile's contact information in the mobile app are up to date with both a current email address and a current phone number. If you have all the correct contact information in your app profile, yet the parcel is still not showing up in you incoming parcels, we recommend that you contact the sender, as they can update any missingcontact information to the shipment!
As a recipient, you can change the parcel point either before or after delivery. It is not possible to change the parcel point in transit.
When the parcel details appear in the Matkahuolto Paketit app, but before the parcel has been accepted for delivery by Matkahuolto, you can change the parcel point once free of charge. Please note that the final parcel point may still be different from your selection if the chosen parcel point is full.
Once you receive the arrival notification, the app offers you a transfer option for a fee. A transfer will generate a new consignment ID, which we will use to transport the parcel to the point of your choice. A transfer to another point can be purchased for parcels processed by manned parcel points, and in the metropolitan area, for parcels in a parcel locker, in which case we will transfer the parcel in cooperation with Wolt.

Matkahuolto has two different models of parcel lockers. If you have received a pick-up code, enter the code on the locker screen and the locker will open the door to the correct box for you.
If your parcel has gone to an app-enabled locker, you will need the Matkahuolto Paketit app, which you can download from your app store! When picking up a parcel from an app-enabled locker, open the Omat Paketit (My Parcels) menu and activate your phone’s Bluetooth connection. Allow the app to use Bluetooth and your precise location data. You can check this in your phone settings. Go close to the lockers and make sure that no other customer is using the locker at the same time. Find out more about app-enabled outdoor parcel lockers.

The Matkahuolto Paketit app is an easy and secure way to manage your parcels. However, we understand that sometimes downloading the app might not be possible.
