Snaile partners with Condo Control Central to relieve parcel overload


The parcel delivery business in Canada is booming, and it is no wonder. The convergence of numerous factors – including millennials’ preference for online shopping, coupled with post-COVID requirements of physical distancing and contactless delivery – has changed the way we live, work and shop. And while this shift in the retail landscape may offer numerous benefits to consumers and corporations alike, those managing multi-residential properties are feeling the pinch: lobbies are bombarded with unsecured parcels, security and concierge staff are overwhelmed, and liability concerns around potential theft and property damage abound. As with any kind of major change, however, those who learn to pivot and adapt swiftly will undoubtedly come out on top. That is where the adoption of smart technology comes in.

Smartening Up

Smart parcel lockers, such as those produced by Canadian manufacturer and distributor, Snaile (pronounced Snail-ee), are relieving much of the strain caused by the unyielding tidal wave of parcel deliveries in multi-residential buildings.

  Smart lockers   used in Canadian multi-residential buildings such as condominiums and apartments solve a lot of issues not only for the consumers making the ecommerce purchases but also for the parcel delivery company, the ecommerce company and for the buildings themselves. Of course, for smart lockers to work properly deliveries must occur systemically, hence why Snaile has had delivery contracts in place for several years with all major Canadian carriers to make sure there is contractual recourse if a delivery driver doesn’t follow what their employer, the building and the building residents want – deliveries to go into Snaile lockers. Still, there is some management to do with drivers that are eager to drop parcels and go, these are typically independent smaller companies, or individuals acting as delivery contractors.

The Future of Parcel Delivery

Remember those Saturday morning cartoons, when the Jetsons would order food on a screen and then instantly get the item from their Replicator? It all seemed so futuristic- but when you consider the ease of online shopping partnered with the convenience of parcel lockers for apartments, you could say the future is already here. Don’t Touch That Dial Shopping outside of traditional bricks-and-mortar retail stores isn’t a new concept. In the mid to late 1800’s catalogue shopping was often the only way to obtain clothing, tools and other everyday items. “But wait, there’s more!” The 20th century brought TV’s frantic ‘call now’ marketing and infomercials. Then along came the internet and by the mid-90s, websites like EBay and Amazon were exploding in popularity. Recent reports suggest that retail sales from worldwide electronic commerce are expected to grow from 2.3 trillion U.S. dollars in 2017 to almost 4.9 trillion in 2021. With all the online options available today, residents ...
