The Future of Takeout: Why Food Pickup Lockers Are a Game Changer for Quick Service Restaurants

Quick service restaurants (QSRs) are restaurant models that offer a smaller, affordable menu, typically serving food from a counter without table service. These restaurants put speed and efficiency at the forefront, giving customers a quick option to grab a meal. According to Toast, QSRs were valued at 406.17 billion dollars in 2024 and are expected to become a 662.53 billion dollar industry by 2029. As digital ordering and takeout demand continue to rise, restaurants need smarter ways to keep up with order fulfillment. Incorporate a fast, and secure solution that transforms guest and staff experience with Luxer One Food Pickup Lockers. Our smart lockers allow customers and delivery drivers to grab meals quickly with no lines, no confusion, and no delay.

why food pickup lockers?

Luxer One’s Food Pickup Lockers are designed specifically for QSRs that want to simplify the order handoff process. These lockers offer an intuitive, contactless solution that tackles common guest complaints like long wait times and order mix ups. According to Toast “65% of consumers prefer ordering food through a drive-thru or collection over dining in person.” The demand for faster, more convenient pickup options is growing. Food lockers offer a solution that meets customer expectations while improving operational efficiency for restaurants.

As a result of the standard takeout pickup options, including shelves or counter service, prepaid food is at risk for theft or mix ups, or customers are forced to wait in long lines. Our Food Pickup lockers offer measurable results including:

Reduced Labor Costs
Streamline operations by minimizing workload for order handoff.
Faster Pickups

Luxer Liaison: A New Era of Parcel Room Management in Canada Begins

Luxer One is proud to announce the official launch of Luxer Liaison in Canada, a premium parcel room management service designed to meet the rising demands of multifamily communities. Our first deployment in Toronto, at a Hines-managed property, marks the beginning of a smarter, more secure future for parcel delivery across the country.

How to Solve Carrier Compliance Issues for Multifamily Deliveries

It’s no secret that multifamily communities are seeing more package deliveries than ever before. With that surge comes an equally pressing challenge with carrier compliance. Ensuring that delivery drivers properly use the property’s package management system can feel like an uphill battle. When deliveries bypass the process, whether due to skipped scans, incorrect locker use, or packages left outside secure areas, property teams are left to pick up the slack. If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone.

Beyond the Package Room: The Versatility of Smart Lockers

When people think of smart lockers, they often imagine them in residential buildings, outside retail stores, or in other convenient places to pick up packages or online orders. But smart locker technology has grown far beyond those original use cases. Today, organizations in public-facing industries are discovering that lockers are a flexible, secure, and efficient way to streamline service delivery across a wide range of environments.

How to Choose a Package Management Vendor That Won’t Disappear on You

Choosing the right package management vendor isn’t just a purchasing decision, it’s a long-term investment in resident experience, staff efficiency, and operational success. Unfortunately, too many properties have learned the hard way that not every vendor is built to last.
From non-existent support to unexpected fees and system failures, unreliable partners don’t just cost you time but resident trust. As package delivery volume continues to grow and residents expect faster, smarter service, the risk of choosing the wrong vendor gets even more expensive.
So how do you identify the partners who will still be showing up for your team years after install?
