Would you let a stranger in your house to drop off a package? Amazon hopes so!

The online retailer will launch a service next month called Amazon Key that would allow delivery people walk into your home to drop off a box when you're not there.

Those who want the service would first have to buy a camera and a Wi-Fi-connected lock from the Seattle company that starts at $250. Shoppers can then select in-home delivery on the Amazon app. When the delivery person shows up, the camera starts recording and the door unlocks.

Rival Walmart is testing a similar service in Silicon Valley.

Amazon.com Inc. says its service will be available in 37 cities on Nov. 8.
