What Are Parcel Lockers and How Do They Work for Multifamily Communities
With online shopping now the norm, apartment communities are seeing more package deliveries than ever before. According to the National Multifamily Housing Council, the average community receives 250–400 packages per week. This number can easily double during the holidays. For property teams, that means more time spent managing deliveries, handling resident complaints, and troubleshooting lost or stolen packages.
That’s where parcel lockers come in. These secure, automated systems have become one of the most effective ways to manage the growing volume of deliveries, while keeping residents happy and operations efficient. They combine security, convenience, and technology to simplify the entire delivery process from carrier drop-off to resident pickup.
