Petrol station chain TanQyou is set to install De Buren parcel lockers at its own petrol stations. The first location where parcels can be dropped off and collected has now been put into operation at the petrol station in Hommerts, Friesland.

The first De Buren parcel locker at a TanQyou petrol station can be found at the site on Jeltewei in Hommerts, Friesland, just south of Sneek. Visitors can send and collect parcels 24/7, with services provided by companies including DHL, DPD and UPS. According to TanQyou, the parcel wall is “more than just a nice cabinet”. The company describes it as “the first step towards expanding to locations where consumers not only refuel or charge their vehicles, but also take care of their day-to-day errands.”

Already a familiar sight

De Buren is delighted with the partnership with TanQyou, as the company believes petrol stations “are often in places where people go anyway.” Thanks to the branding in the petrol station chain’s colours, the parcel locker attracts attention and fits in with TanQyou’s style, says De Buren. TanQyou plans to equip more of its own petrol stations with parcel lockers in the coming period.

More and more petrol station sites in the Netherlands are being fitted with parcel lockers. De Buren has partnerships with, amongst others, Kuwait Petroleum (Tango), EG Group, TinQ, Vissers Energy, Leap24 and Green Planet.

The TanQyou in Hommerts is an unmanned petrol station offering Euro 95, diesel, Euro 100+, AdBlue and high-speed diesel at the pumps. The shop houses a branch of the convenience store chain Spare Rib Express.
