Parcel Locker Solutions for Canadian Multifamily Communities

May 15, 2026

Canadian multifamily communities are experiencing a major shift in parcel management. As online shopping continues to grow and resident expectations rise, developers and operators are under increasing pressure to modernize how deliveries are handled.
That is why more properties are investing in parcel locker solutions that improve security, simplify parcel management, and create a better resident experience.
According to recent research from Mordor Intelligence, the Canadian courier, express, and parcel market is projected to grow to more than USD $20 billion by 2031, driven largely by continued eCommerce growth and increasing delivery demand. For multifamily operators, that means parcel volume is not slowing down anytime soon.

Boost Resident Retention with Reliable Partners

Resident Retention Starts With Reliable Multifamily Partners

May 8, 2026

Resident retention has become one of the most important metrics in multifamily housing and one of the hardest to maintain. Today’s residents expect convenience, consistency, and responsive service across every touchpoint of their living experience. When operations fall short, frustration builds quickly.
That’s why more property and regional managers are reevaluating not just the amenities they offer, but the multifamily technology partners behind them.
Reliable partners don’t just help properties run smoothly. They directly support resident satisfaction, operational consistency, and long-term asset value.

What Is the Best Way to Manage Packages in a University Mailroom?

May 7, 2026

University mailrooms are under more pressure than ever. As online shopping continues to grow, campuses are receiving an unprecedented volume of packages each day, often without the staffing or storage space to keep up. For many universities, the question is no longer whether a new system is needed, it’s what is the best system to use?

The Hidden Cost of Off-Site Package Models

April 30, 2026

At first glance, some package management solutions seem like a win for property teams. They promise fewer packages on-site, less clutter, and less day-to-day handling.
But what looks convenient on the surface often comes with hidden tradeoffs. While these models may reduce visibility on the property, they do not eliminate the problem. They shift it somewhere else.
And in many cases, they shift it directly onto residents.

The Middleman Problem: Why More Delivery Logistics Creates More Problems

April 21, 2026

On paper, adding more steps to a delivery process can sound like progress. More coordination, more handling, and more structure.
But in reality, more logistics often leads to more problems.
This is the core issue facing today’s multifamily delivery logistics strategies. In an effort to manage growing package volume, many systems have introduced additional layers between the carrier and the resident.
And while those layers are meant to help, they often create the opposite effect.
Because every extra step is another opportunity for something to go off track.

Luxer Liaison: A Familiar Face & Trusted Community Partner

A Familiar Face: How Luxer Liaison Adds a Human Touch to Package Management

January 15, 2026

Modern package management systems have transformed how communities handle deliveries. Smart lockers and centralized package rooms bring security, organization, and automation to an increasingly complex last-mile environment. But at larger communities, technology alone isn’t always enough to deliver the experience residents and onsite teams expect.
That’s where expert support for package management systems makes a meaningful difference.
At many Luxer One communities, that difference comes in the form of a familiar, trusted face. For one property, that person is Val: a Luxer Liaison whose presence has helped turn an already strong package system into a smoother, more human-centered experience.

The Growing Demand for Package Management in Multifamily Communities

January 15, 2026

The demand for package management has been steadily rising for years, but over the past twelve months, it has shifted from a convenience issue to an operational imperative. For property managers, owners, and developers alike, package volume is no longer a temporary side effect of peak ecommerce seasons. It is a permanent fixture of modern multifamily living.
Residents expect fast, secure delivery. Carriers expect efficient drop-off. On-site teams are expected to keep everything moving without adding labor or liability. As ecommerce behavior continues to evolve and staffing pressures remain tight, communities are being forced to rethink how they manage last-mile delivery at scale.
This is where multifamily package management solutions have moved from “nice-to-have” amenities to core infrastructure.

Value Messaging Is the Key to Preventing Long-Term Concessions in Multifamily

January 14, 2026

Concessions have become a familiar fixture across the multifamily landscape. As operators move through 2026, the question is no longer whether incentives belong in the leasing toolbox, but how to use them without sacrificing long-term revenue performance. This is where value messaging plays a critical role.
When concessions are paired with clear, consistent value messaging, they can support occupancy without resetting renter expectations. When they are not, they risk becoming a long-term drag on effective rents, renewals, and overall NOI. In today’s market, preventing long-term concessions is less about eliminating discounts altogether and more about ensuring price is never the only thing prospects remember.

The State of the Multifamily Market: Stability Is Returning, but Discipline Still Matters

January 8, 2026

After several years of volatility, the state of the multifamily market entering 2026 feels more predictable than it has since the early post-pandemic period. Rent growth has normalized, supply pressures are beginning to ease in many metros, and demand fundamentals are slowly strengthening. However, this is not a return to the high-growth environment operators experienced earlier in the decade.
Instead, the Q1 2026 outlook reflects a market where stability is returning, but performance depends heavily on operational discipline, cost control, and resident experience. Properties that adapt to this reality are finding steadier footing. Those that rely on outdated assumptions or inefficient systems may struggle to keep pace.
This Q1 2026 multifamily market report breakdown explores what the latest data is telling operators and what it means for day-to-day decision-making.

Smart Lockers for Asset Exchange and Package Management in the Modern Workplace

January 8, 2026

Workplace operations have changed dramatically in recent years. Hybrid schedules, distributed teams, and higher expectations for speed and accountability have reshaped how offices manage equipment, documents, and deliveries. As a result, many organizations are rethinking how assets move through the workplace.
That shift is driving increased demand for smart lockers for asset exchange and package management, a secure and automated solution designed to reduce loss, streamline workflows, and scale with enterprise operations. For workplace managers and operations directors, smart lockers are no longer a convenience. They are becoming a core infrastructure tool for the modern workplace.

How to Save Time and Money with Package Management at Apartments

January 8, 2026

Smart lockers and package rooms have become essential infrastructure for modern apartment communities. They create secure, self-service delivery workflows, reduce front office congestion, and give residents flexibility to pick up packages on their own schedule.
For many communities, these systems already do most of the heavy lifting. But at larger properties or across growing portfolios, even the best package management technology benefits from consistent human support.
That is where onsite package management staff come in. When paired with smart lockers and package rooms, they help communities save time and money with package management by ensuring systems are used properly, residents are supported, and onsite teams stay focused on higher-value work.

Unlocking Revenue with Smart Lockers: A Strategic Response to Online Cart Abandonment

January 7, 2026

Online cart abandonment is not a new problem, but it is becoming a more expensive one.
As ecommerce has matured, shopper expectations have risen just as fast. Convenience, flexibility, and control now play as large a role in conversion as price or product availability. When those expectations are not met, shoppers hesitate, leave, and often do not return.
For retail operations leaders, cart abandonment should no longer be viewed as just a marketing or UX issue alone. It’s also a fulfillment and operational challenge, and one that demands a more strategic response.
