What is Multi-Package Delivery & Why is it Important?

In today’s multifamily communities, the number of deliveries arriving daily has never been higher. Between Amazon, UPS, FedEx, USPS, and local couriers, residents often receive multiple packages from different carriers in a single day. For property managers, that creates both a logistical challenge and an opportunity for smarter operations.

That’s where multi-package delivery comes in: a first-of-its-kind feature introduced by Luxer One, and still the only true solution of its kind in the industry today. This innovative technology allows carriers to deliver multiple packages for the same resident into a single locker, regardless of carrier. It’s a small change with a big impact: simplified deliveries, optimized locker usage, and a faster, more seamless resident experience.

What is Multi-Package Delivery?

At its core, multi-package delivery is a smart locker software feature that enables more than one package for the same resident to be placed into one locker compartment. Traditionally, automated locker systems treat each delivery as a one-to-one transaction: one package, one locker. That means if a resident has two deliveries arriving the same day from different carriers, they might occupy two separate lockers.

Luxer One changed that. With our multi-package delivery technology, all deliveries for the same resident can be grouped into a single locker. This ensures that each locker is used efficiently and that residents can retrieve all of their packages with one simple pickup code.

It’s an innovative solution to a growing problem, and one that supports our mission to help every property achieve 100% package acceptance without the overflow, confusion, or missed deliveries that plague older systems.

How It Works

When a carrier arrives, they scan or select the resident’s name from the locker interface. If that resident already has a package in a locker, the system automatically notifies the carrier that they can add additional packages to the same compartment, even if they’re from different carriers.

The process is fully automated and designed to be intuitive for delivery personnel. This ensures a smoother workflow and prevents lockers from filling prematurely, a common issue in properties that handle hundreds of packages daily.

Key Benefits of Multi-Package Delivery

For multifamily properties, the advantages of multi-package delivery are both operational and experiential.

  • Optimized Locker Usage
    By consolidating multiple deliveries into one locker, properties can significantly reduce locker demand. This means fewer locker shortages during peak seasons and more efficient use of space. Your system can maintain 100% package acceptance without costly expansions.

  • Simplified Resident Pickup
    Residents love convenience, and nothing’s easier than retrieving all your deliveries with one code. Multi-package delivery eliminates confusion and extra trips to the locker area, creating a smoother, faster, and more satisfying resident experience.

  • Easier Flow for Carriers
    Delivery personnel benefit, too. Instead of searching for multiple open lockers, carriers can drop all packages for a single resident at once. This speeds up deliveries and reduces congestion during high-traffic times.

 

Together, these benefits create a more efficient ecosystem for everyone involved.

Why It Matters for 100% Package Acceptance

In a world where package volumes keep growing, many properties still face capacity challenges and rejected deliveries. That’s why achieving 100% package acceptance has become the gold standard for modern communities.

Multi-package delivery plays a critical role in reaching that benchmark. By maximizing every locker’s capacity, properties can ensure that no packages are turned away, even during peak seasons like the holidays or major sales events. For property managers, that means fewer headaches, no overflow in leasing offices, and happier residents year-round.

Luxer One: The Industry Pioneer

Luxer One was the first company in the industry to introduce true multi-package delivery, and we remain the only provider offering it across carriers. While some systems allow same-carrier deliveries to share a locker, Luxer One’s technology enables true cross-carrier functionality. This major difference ensures full flexibility and efficiency.

With over 20 years of experience leading the package management industry, we continue to set the standard for innovation, reliability, and resident satisfaction.

Black Friday for Multifamily: How Property Managers Can Prepare

Black Friday may only last a day, but its ripple effects on multifamily communities can last for weeks. Not to mention the rise of Cyber Week following this yearly event. As online spending continues to rise, property and regional managers across the U.S. are already bracing for a new surge in package deliveries that will test every part of their operations.
According to Adobe Analytics, U.S. shoppers spent $10.8 billion online on Black Friday 2024, a 10.2% increase year over year. That number is projected to climb even higher in 2025 as retailers start promotions earlier than ever. In fact, 37% of consumers say they now expect holiday sales to begin before Halloween (Sinch, 2025). For multifamily teams, that means the “holiday package season” now stretches from late October through New Year’s.
