Parcel Storage Assembly

A parcel storage assembly for securely storing a delivered parcel for subsequent retrieval by an authorized user, said assembly comprising:

• a box being positionable adjacent to an entry of a building wherein said box is configured to be accessible to a parcel delivery person, said box having an outer wall, said outer wall having a top edge defining an opening into said box;
• a lid being hingedly coupled to said box for opening and closing said box, said lid having a lower surface and a rear edge, said rear edge being hingedly coupled to said top edge of said outer wall of said box, said lower surface resting on said top edge when said lid is closed;
• a locking unit being coupled to said box, said locking unit engaging said lid when said locking unit is turned on to inhibit said lid from being opened, said locking unit disengaging said lid when said locking unit is turned off thereby facilitating said lid to be opened, said locking unit being in wireless communication with a personal electronic device wherein said locking unit is configured to be remotely turned on and off by a user, said locking unit being in communication with a surveillance camera of the building wherein said locking unit is configured to communicate imagery from the surveillance camera to the personal electronic device to facilitate the user to verify the identity of the parcel delivery person, said locking unit comprising:
• a control circuit being coupled to said box, said control circuit receiving a lock input and an unlock input, said control circuit being in electrical communication with the surveillance camera, said control circuit being electrically coupled to a power source comprising an electrical system of the building;
• a magnetic lock being coupled to said box, said magnetic lock including an engagement being coupled to said lower surface of said lid, said magnetic lock being electrically coupled to said control circuit, said magnetic lock magnetically engaging said engagement when said control circuit receives said lock input to inhibit said lid from being opened, said magnetic lock magnetically disengaging said engagement when said control circuit receives said unlock input to facilitate said lid to be opened;
• and
• a transceiver being coupled to said box, said transceiver being electrically coupled to said control circuit, said transceiver being in wireless communication with an extrinsic communication network thereby facilitating said transceiver to communicate with the personal electronic device;
• a switch being coupled to said box, said switch being electrically coupled to said control circuit, said switch being turned on when said lid is closed, said switch being turned off when said lid is opened;
• a light emitter being coupled to said box, said light emitter emitting light in the ultraviolet spectrum wherein said light emitter is configured to kill bacteria, said light emitter being turned on when said lid is opened wherein said light emitter is configured to sterilize the parcel being delivered by the parcel delivery person, said light emitter being positioned in an interior of said box, said light emitter being electrically coupled to said control circuit, said light emitter being turned on when said switch is turned on, said light emitter being turned off when said switch is turned off;
• and
• a cooler being positionable within said box wherein said cooler is configured to have a food delivery positioned therein, said cooler being comprised of a thermally insulating material wherein said cooler is configured to retain the food delivery at a desired temperature, said cooler having a bottom wall and an outside wall extending upwardly therefrom, said outside wall having an inner surface, said inner surface having a plurality of rails being coupled thereto, each of said rails being horizontally oriented, said plurality of rails being spaced apart from each other and being vertically distributed on said inner surface;
• and
• a plurality of trays, each of said trays being perforated wherein each of said trays is configured to pass air therethrough, each of said trays being positionable on a respective pair of rails in said cooler wherein each of said trays is configured to vertically stack food items in said cooler.
