24/7 Accessibility

Outdoor locations provide customers with the flexibility to pick up their parcels at any time, day or night. PIN code-based access works even if mobile network is temporarily not available.

Optimizing space

Placing lockers strategically in high-traffic areas like transit stations, shopping centers, or residential complexes, makes use of limited space in urban areas where traditional delivery methods might struggle to keep up. With well-placed outdoor lockers companies can reduce last-mile delivery costs and increase efficiency.

Easy installation and low starting costs

As there is no need for electrical or data connections or other infrastructure, the locker only needs solid ground on which to stand on its concrete base and it is ready to be used in minutes. Locker configuration can be done beforehand by backend UI or via Punta API.

Enhanced Security and Reliability

Punta outdoor lockers are designed to securely store parcels until the customer retrieves them. Advanced security features, such as surveillance camera, reinforced double wall structures, and unique access codes, help protect parcels from theft and tampering.

Scalability and Flexibility

A network can be started with a minimal number of lockers and easily scaled up easily as demand grows, expanding delivery networks as far as needed. There are virtually no limits on how large the locker fleet can grow.

Environmental and Sustainability Considerations

Consolidating deliveries to lockers reduces the number of delivery vehicles on the road. This contributes to lower carbon emissions and supports sustainability goals, which is increasingly important to both companies and consumers.
