A delivery vehicle is configured to be able to deliver a package in front of a front door of a dwelling unit in a complex housing including a shared door with automatic lock function that is able to be opened as unlock information is input to an unlock input unit of an entrance via wireless communication. When the delivery vehicle arrives at the complex housing including the shared door with automatic lock function, and a delivery instruction for leaving the package in front of the front door is made, an on-board unit of the delivery vehicle inputs the unlock information to the unlock input unit via the wireless communication, and notifies a terminal device of a user of input date and time.

A postal and package receptacle includes a main body that has an open top and a lid over the top that is movable between an open position and a closed position. The lid is moved from the open to the closed position upon receiving an open command via a wireless communication, whereupon a package can be placed in the interior of the main body. After a package is placed in the interior of the main body, the lid can be closed. A drone can be programmed to deliver a package to the postal and package receptacle and upon arriving at the location of the postal and package receptacle, the drone can communicate with the postal and package receptacle to issue the open and close commands, accordingly.

A parcel storage assembly for remotely securing a parcel delivery includes a box that is positionable adjacent to an entry of a building to be accessible to a parcel delivery person. A lid is hingedly coupled to the box for opening and closing the box. A locking unit is coupled to the box and the locking unit engages the lid when the locking unit is turned on to inhibit the lid from is opened. The locking unit is in wireless communication with a personal electronic device to facilitate a user to remotely lock and unlock the box. A light emitter is coupled to the box to kill bacteria and sterilizing the parcel delivered by the parcel delivery person. A cooler is positionable within the box for receiving a food delivery positioned therein.

Various examples are provided related to package delivery receptacles. In one example, a delivery guard includes a depository contained within a front surface, a rear surface, and side surfaces of the delivery guard; a front facing package drop door pivotally attached to the front surface; a package deposit shelf attached to the front facing package drop door at a fixed orientation; a second shelf pivotally attached to the rear surface; and a linkage assembly coupled between the package deposit shelf and the second shelf. Rotation of the front facing package drop door between open and closed positions simultaneously rotates the second shelf via the linkage assembly. The package deposit shelf and the second shelf can rotate downward as the front facing package drop door is closed thereby providing a sloped opening to the depository.
