Lithuanian term or phrase: paštomatai
Kaip verstumėte „paštomatas“, kai kalbama apie savitarnos pašto dėžutes, į kurias įdedate siuntinį, apmokate vietoje ir jums išduodamas kodas. Arba iš kurių turėdami kodą galite atsiimti siuntinį.

self-service terminals
Explanation:
Post24 paštomatai, arba savitarnos siuntų terminalai, yra Estijos pašto sumanymas Lietuvoje. Unipak yra Post24 partneris. Jų svetainėje vartojamas terminas self-service terminals:

"Post24 is convenient and modern way to send and receive parcels
using self-service terminals for private and business customers."
http://www.unipak.lt/eng/post24

Pačiame Post24 angliškame puslapyje vartojamas ir terminas "self service parcel machines ":
POST24 is self service parcel machines network
in the Baltic countries
https://www.post24.lt/Post24

Toje pačioje svetainėje, naujienų skyriuje apie Estijos paštą vartojamas terminas "parcel terminals"
"New, always open Post24 parcel terminals are equipped with a bigger screen and have more lockers. The capacity of parel terminals will be increased by 40%."
https://www.post24.lt/index.php?article_id=147&page=12&actio...

"parcel terminals" terminas vartojamas latvių naujienų tarnybos svetainėje http://www.baltic-course.com/eng/good_for_business/?doc=8467...

Taip pat šios, Post24, svetainės puslapyje vartojamas ir dar vienas terminas: "parcel lockers"
The most important achievements of 2012 were launching of the network of Post24 parcel lockers in Latvia and Lithuania, the increasing growth of e-services, and acquisition of Lithuanian courier company Unipakas.
https://www.post24.lt/index.php?article_id=145&page=12&actio...

Taigi variantai tokie:
1. "Self-service terminals"
2. "Parcel terminals"
3. "Parcel lockers"

Taigi vertimas nėra iki galo nusistovėjęs. Nuostabą kelia tai, kad paties paštomatų "autoriaus" Estijos pašto angliškoje svetainėje http://www.post.ee/map?lang=en angliško vartojimo nėra (arba neradau)

Jeigu vertimas susijęs su Baltijos šalimis, aš siūlyčiau labiau kreipti dėmesį į minėtus Baltijos šalių ir šalyse vartojamus angliškus terminus. Bent jau, kol angliškas terminas nėra nusistovėjęs. Aš pats esu susidūręs su vertimu ir galiu pasakyti, kad lyg ir linkstama į "parcel terminals". Norisi prikabinti "automated", tačiau tokios tendencijos nepastebėjau. Nors būtų logiška Pavyzdžio savo vertimo, deja, pateikti negaliu dėl konfidencialumo įsipareigojimo.

automated parcel terminals


Explanation:
Sometimes they are referred to by a brandname “packstation”, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packstation .
... But it still belongs to the DHL Parcel Germany company.

The generic term that is gaining popularity (as the service itself) during the last few years is:
automated parcel terminal”.

They are chiefly used for “parcels and oversize letters” (as per Wikipedia). For letters, one would more likely use regular post or e-mail.
