"They have also given feedback that the OTP (one-time password) system enhances security, and have found the option to choose the appropriate locker size to fit parcels useful."Ī Pick locker station usually has between 40 and 50 lockers in six sizes, from extra small, which can contain one shoebox, to extra large, which can contain a 21-inch medium-size suitcase. Drivers say that Pick lockers have allowed them to be more efficient by reducing time spent waiting at lifts and contacting customers. "Individual drivers have also benefited from the network. "By aggregating deliveries to a single locker station instead of consumers' doorsteps, Pick's lockers are able to reduce the strain of manpower crunch and increase cost savings," he said. He added that Pick has been able to provide convenience to consumers and improve the productivity of the logistics sector.
