Smart Locker Operation Instructions

Penn Residential Services is excited to announce that Canon Solutions America will begin utilizing automated lockers to distribute packages starting Monday, October 19. Please note that letter mail will still be held and retrieved from your designated Mail and Package Center. Below is some information on the new package locker system.

  • Package Notifications
    • Once Canon has received and distributed your package you will receive an email which includes the locker location and barcode that you will need to pick up your package.
  • Access to Package Lockers
    • You will be assigned to a specific package locker location based on the building where you live.
    • If you live in a building that doesn’t have package lockers than your packages will be available for pick up at the nearest building that does. You will be able to access this building from 8AM – 9PM daily to retrieve your package.

  • Instructions for Using the Package Lockers
    • Each package locker location will have an instructional card with directions on how to operate the lockers.
    • To use the lockers, you will scan the barcode that was sent to you in your package notification email at display monitor at your specified package locker location and the locker door containing your package will pop open. Once you have retrieved your package you will need to be sure to close the locker door so that it is ready to be reloaded for the next resident.  
    • If you need assistance operating your locker you may visit your Mail and Package Center and ask a Canon representative for help.   
  • Types of Packages:
    • The package lockers can accommodate shipping envelopes and small to medium sized boxes.
    • Large boxes and oversized items will not fit into the package lockers and you will need to pick them up from your Mail and Package Center, located in Harnwell and Hill.
    • Your package notification email will tell you which location to go to pick-up your package(s).
