Leicester’s Glow Up! Recently, Parcelhub’s Leicester depot received had a well deserved refurbishment whereby they have added in two extra external doors to improve traffic efficency and safety at the site. Before the refurbishment, all Parcelhub vehicles were entering and exiting through one door causing a "bottleneck" in their operation. Adding the two additional doors makes the operations run smoother and a lot safer.
