Customers will be able to collect and return online orders from other retailers at select Aldi stores, thanks to the supermarket's new partnership with parcel locker provider InPost.

Throughout March, InPost lockers will be available outside 22 Aldi stores across the country, with a full list of locations available below.

The trial will conclude after a 12-week period, with the aim to roll it out to more stores if successful.

Richard Thornton, Communications Director at Aldi UK, said: 'We are all about making things efficient for our customers, and the installation of InPost lockers will make shopping at Aldi even more convenient.

'People can collect or return parcels while they are doing their shopping, with the lockers accessible with a QR code. If the trial is successful, this will hopefully be something available to lots more of our shoppers later this year.'

Michael Rouse, CEO at InPost International, said: 'We're on a mission to bring unrivalled parcel convenience to shoppers in the UK, and this trial with Aldi does just that.

'With over 6,000 parcel lockers in the UK, we offer hassle-free delivery options that easily integrate into shoppers' daily routines. In this case, Aldi customers can now pick up and drop off their parcels with ease and efficiency while doing the weekly shop. We look forward to seeing the results from the trial and the start of a successful partnership.'
