Dronedek, a company making smart mailboxes for traditional and autonomous delivery services, shares what the future of drone delivery may look like

INDIANAPOLIS, Indiana – (July 5, 2022) – There’s been a lot of buzz about drone delivery in recent months. Amazon and Walmart have committed to a future that includes it, as have restaurants such as Domino’s and El Pollo Tropical. Consumers have indicated that they are also ready for a move in the drone delivery direction. Yet it leaves many people wondering what types of changes could bring to their city. What a large-scale drone delivery service will look like is on the minds of many people.

“This is an exciting time for both businesses and consumers,” says Dan O’Toole, founder, and chief executive officer of Dronedek. “We are on the brink of a revolutionary change that will fundamentally transform how things are delivered.”

Many people are already experiencing drone delivery services, as it is being tested in numerous cities around the country. With packages and food deliveries being made within minutes after the order is placed, it’s giving people the opportunity to see what the future can hold around the nation. It also provides the companies a chance to work out the kinks so that it’s ready to be taken to a larger scale.

Here are a few ways drone delivery could change cities in the years to come:

“One concern people have is that the drone will drop their item in the yard, and it will not be secured,” O’Toole said. “Our receptacle addresses this issue to ensure that their items are safe and secure.”

Dronedek is a secure receptacle that will receive drone deliveries. Individuals and businesses can have them secured in their yard, such as a mailbox, and the drone will place the delivery inside the receptacle. The receptacle will keep the item safe from would-be thieves, and inclement weather and only allows the homeowner or business owner to access the item delivered.

Founded by Dan O’Toole, Dronedek has raised $7.1 million, to develop its smart mailboxes for the masses and begin pilot programs. Dubbed as the “mailbox of the future,” the container will help people send and receive packages securely and safely and provides privacy. The company recently announced it has partnered with Helium to allow for more significant wireless network expansion. Helium hotspots will be put into Dronedeks in areas with limited coverage to help build the network.
