Various purchases were stolen after thieves forced open a number of compartments, though exact figures are not yet known.
Customers using the Adamstown depot at the Maxol Service station have been re-directed to the Lucan facility located at Texaco on the N4.
Any customers who had parcels stored at the location have been advised to email the company directly at support@parcelmotel.com
A spokesperson for the company said: “For any customers wishing to send a parcel, your label is valid at any other Parcel Motel location in the country.”
“When our Adamstown location is back up and running, we will advise customers to let them know.”
“Apologies for any inconvenience caused and thank you for your patience.”
Garda investigations are ongoing.
