The Package Crisis Hurting the Student Experience

Move-in surges in student housing now overwhelm traditional package areas—staff process up to 60% more packages during the busy move-in period, especially during semester changeovers. Every semester starts the same way: overflowing packages, missing textbooks, and frustrated families. 68% of property managers spend 1–4 hours per week on package logistics in traditional multifamily settings. In student housing, where delivery volume runs 30%–50% higher, staff can easily spend 20+ hours weekly on intake, logging, notifications, and administration — time that could be better spent supporting student success.

 Meanwhile, our clients process 116 daily packages on average during peak periods with student housing package management while your team drowns in delivery logs. Students touring prospective housing see the package chaos. They notice. The solution already exists—you just need to implement it.

    Are there any fees for the residents to use the Smart Package Room?

    Your Subtitle Goes Here
    3

    No, residents are not required to pay any fees to use the Smart Package Room system.

    Will the system fill up during the holidays or when package volume spikes?

    Your Subtitle Goes Here
    3
    No. The Smart Package Room solution uses open shelving to maximize density, unlike locker systems that rely on a fixed number of compartments. This capability allows the room to hold up to 2-3X higher package capacity than a locker bank of the same size, keeping space available during peak seasons.

    How does the system handle huge items like furniture?

    Your Subtitle Goes Here
    3

    We do not have "slots" that packages must fit into. The Smart Package Room solution includes a designated Oversized Zone for large or irregular deliveries. Couriers and staff deliver these items to the appropriate area, and residents are guided to the correct zone during pick up. This approach eliminates the need for oversized locker modules while maintaining an organized package room experience. Many sites also feature one access-controlled room solely dedicated to oversized and overflow packages.

    Do couriers and staff need to select a specific compartment size for every package?

    Your Subtitle Goes Here
    3
    No. Couriers and staff enter through secure access, scan packages using the MobileKiosk, and deliver them to available shelving without selecting a compartment size.

    Is there a support team available for troubleshooting and assistance?

    Your Subtitle Goes Here
    3

    Yes, the experienced Smart Package Room support team can be reached by phone or email.

    Can it be customized to fit my building?

    Your Subtitle Goes Here
    3

    Yes, the Smart Package Room can be customized to fit any building, any space, from square and rectangle rooms to L-shaped rooms, around columns, and in multiple rooms on one property.

    Can it handle cold storage or oversized items?

    Your Subtitle Goes Here
    3

    Yes, the Smart Package Room system has the option of a refrigeration unit in a cold storge section. The room’s oversized zone allows for large and irregular packages of all shapes and sizes such as televisions, furniture and sports equipment.

    Do residents need to download an app or register to use it?

    Your Subtitle Goes Here
    3

    No, residents do not need to download an app or register to use it. The system integrates with the site’s property management system, allowing all automatic package notifications to be sent to the resident by text or email.

    Can residents access their packages 24/7?

    Yes, the package room is available for residents to use 24/7.

    Your Subtitle Goes Here

    The room features a closed-locked door with 24/7 monitoring to reduce theft. In addition there is a full digital chain of custody for all packages that are delivered into the room, ensuring that the right package ends up in the right hands every time.

    Do residents need to put a credit card on file or pay storage fees?

    Your Subtitle Goes Here
    3
    No. Some competitors charge "storage fees" or require credit card registration if a package sits too long.

    How much maintenance does the system require compared to smart lockers?

    Your Subtitle Goes Here
    3
    Significantly less. Traditional apartment parcel lockers rely on numerous moving parts, such as hinges, latches, and battery-powered locks, which require ongoing maintenance. The Smart Package Room solution relies on open shelving, designated zones, and mounted presence sensors. The system utilizes minimal moving parts and relies on software to track packages, leaving far less hardware to maintain.
