Forecast based on the base scenario, not a guarantee of income.
The courier arrives. Nobody is home.
Every failed delivery costs carriers and shops money. That is why they pay to deliver into lockers.
Repeat trips
Second attempts, calls and waiting at the door eat the courier’s day.
Lost time
Couriers spend hours on the phone instead of on the road.
Lost sales
Undelivered orders turn into returns and unhappy customers.
One stop at a locker replaces a dozen addresses. That saving is your income.
The parcel waits for the customer, not the other way round
