Abstract:

This reports studies potential benefits of locker delivery systems. The literature review indicates that e-commerce growth is clearly outpacing brick-and-mortar’s growth globally and in the US. Besides huge package delivery demand, the desire for alternative and faster delivery methods, increasing regulatory restrictions on freight deliveries, and the adoption of new technologies challenge current urban logistics system. As a sustainable and efficient emerging delivery method, parcel lockers do possess potentials of reducing carbon emissions, improving logistics efficiency, serving customers’ need needs, and gaining more popularity and economic viability. Lockers are expected to benefit courier companies by allowing operations at increasingly competitive rates, and retailers and consumers benefit from convenience and low shipping rates.
