How Smart Parcel Lockers Work
Smart parcel lockers go beyond basic storage. Equipped with digital technology, these lockers work by assigning a secure, temporary access code or using app-based notifications to inform recipients when a package is delivered. When a courier places the package into a locker, the system sends a notification to the recipient with a unique code or QR scan for retrieval. This smart locker system ensures parcels are accessed securely and conveniently, even after hours.

USPS parcel lockers, for example, are helping the postal service manage growing volumes of mail and packages more efficiently.
