Parcel Locker Solutions

In recent years, the UK has seen a significant increase in online shopping, driven by the convenience and accessibility of purchasing goods from home. Naturally, with more consumers turning to e-commerce, particularly since the pandemic, the volume of parcels being delivered has surged. 
 
The increase in online orders has particularly highlighted issues with parcel handling and delivery services. Many leaseholders have reported incidents of parcels being mishandled, delayed, or even stolen from doorsteps. Our solutions also eliminate bogus delivery couriers gaining access into the apartment block.
 
The rise in online shopping has placed considerable strain on delivery networks, and in some cases, inadequate or rushed delivery processes have led to parcels being left in unsecured locations or marked as delivered when they haven't arrived. This has prompted concerns about the vulnerability of packages to theft, particularly in urban areas where foot traffic can be higher. As the demand for online shopping continues to rise, addressing these delivery challenges is becoming increasingly urgent.
 
Eris has partnered with multiple parcel locker providers who offer various options for safer and more efficient parcel delivery.
 
Parcel Locker Delivery

Parcel Lockers

A parcel locker is an automated secure storage unit that offers a convenient solution for residents to receive and return packages.

While they are a readily available service across many parts of Europe, they are a more recent amenity in the UK. You may have already spotted them near supermarkets or train stations. Our goal now is to make them even more accessible by bringing them to residential areas. 

Benefits of a parcel locker system include:

  • Security: The parcel locker system offers a high level of security by securely storing packages that are ready to be collected, eliminating the risk of theft.

  • Convenience: As they are accessible 24/7/365, residents can easily retrieve or return their packages at any time that suits them.

  • Efficiency: The automated parcel locker system not only saves time for residents but also for building staff, making the package management process more streamlined and hassle-free for everyone involved.

The parcel locker installation is completely free of charge for freeholders, property managers and residents.

Parcel Delivery

Internal Lockers

Internal parcel lockers allow couriers to place deliveries into secure, individual compartments rather than leaving parcels in communal areas or outside flat doors. This significantly reduces the risk of theft, damage, or missed deliveries, giving residents peace of mind that their items are safe until they are collected.

These locker systems also improve convenience for leaseholders. Parcels can be collected at any time, removing the need to wait at home for deliveries or rely on neighbours to accept them. This is particularly beneficial for residents with busy schedules, shift workers, and those who work away from home.

From a building management perspective, parcel lockers help keep communal areas clear and organised. They prevent corridors, lobbies, and stairwells from becoming cluttered with unattended parcels, supporting fire safety compliance and maintaining a clean, professional appearance throughout the building.
