New Solar-Powered Post Boxes in Hampshire

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

The new post boxes are solar-powered, allowing customers to deposit small parcels using a parcel drawer activated by solar panels.

The change is intended to help Royal Mail keep up with growing competition and demand in the delivery sector, after the company was fined for not meeting delivery targets.

Royal Mail has begun to roll out 3,500 new post boxes across the UK.
