A secure drop box comprises a processing circuitry that directs the container portion of the secure drop box containing the delivery item to open up for easy withdrawal of the item. The secure drop box directs the drone to approach it along a predetermined path. The secure drop box communicates a notification indicating receipt of the delivery item when the drone has delivered the item into the secure drop box. The notification comprises a digital image taken by a camera disposed inside or on top of the container portion of the secure drop box. The processing circuitry directs the drone to deliver the delivery item at an alternate drop box when the secure drop box is determined to already contain a previously delivered item.
