I've never owned one before, but for security and whatnot I'm thinking about getting one considering the amount of packages coming to my home. What size do you guys use? Quite a difference in price between them, my location has parcel lockers available? So technically I could just get a small one and use the parcel locker but have to pick up anything oversized at the counter correct?

I noticed UPS also offers locker services but I haven't checked price yet.

Thanks for any help,

Kevin

Depends how much you're willing to deal with retrieving package from the clerk if you're receiving packages that are larger than the PO Box. Any packages that won't fit they'll just put a slip in your PO box you present at the counter and they grab it from the back.

If that's not an issue, get the cheapest one.

Generally, a small delivery of coins will fit the regular sized PO boxes. Anything larger they will keep and hold for you to pick up. Try the regular PO box and see how it works for you first.

See here for sizes https://www.usps.com/manage/po-boxes.htm
If you get packages that don't fit into your PO Box, you'll either get a slip to pick them up from the counter during normal business hours or get your package from a secure parcel locker at your convenience
