Meridian’s solution at Tyler Ridge apartment complex, in North Carolina, demonstrates how Smart Parcel Lockers provide immediate benefits over any traditional delivery system.
A Mailroom in Chaos
One of the biggest challenges apartment complexes face is the management of parcel deliveries for residents.
Tyler Ridge Apartments was facing this very issue. A cluttered mail room and an unsightly cluster of boxes loaded up the front office, from the overwhelming number of packages being delivered. The unsightly mess even caused some residents to have to pick up their packages directly at the post office due to a lack of space.
To solve the issue, the apartment complex turned to Meridian and our Smart Parcel Lockers. The lockers provide a modern and comprehensive solution that organizes the complex’s often-cluttered mail room, creating a sleek and organized system for mail and package retrieval for residents.
Automatic Notifications & Remote Management
Now, when a package is placed in the locker, it sends an automatic text notification with a personalized code directly to the resident for pick up. This code system increases the safety and security of their deliveries by helping to ensure only the resident can pick up their delivery.
Additionally, Meridian’s Parcel Lockers send automatic pick-up reminders to forgetful residents. Especially if they have not picked up their packages within a specific time frame. Another great benefit is the remote management feature that allows the office staff to see which locker compartments available and which ones are currently in use. This feature allows Administrators to see, on their screen, which packages may have been forgotten and when residents picked up their packages.
Tyler’s Ridge Smart Parcel Locker Results
The results are impressive. The Tyler’s Ridge, and others just like it, are overjoyed to have such a comprehensive and modern solution that organized their overrun mail rooms. Smart Parcel Lockers also provide increased security for all deliveries and allow residents to pick up their packages in one convenient location, rather than having to go all the way to the post office for deliveries. Packages are still dropped off at the office but are now kept securely and conveniently out of the way while still allowing residents to easily access their packages.
Delivery drivers also enjoyed the convenience of having everything in one location. Rather than having to hunt down individual units or addresses now all the deliveries can be made at one time in one location.
