Stockland, a diversified Australian property group and the Australian Stock Exchange listed company, has partnered with tech giant Amazon, as the first Australian property company to offer Amazon Locker, a secure, self-service kiosk for parcel pick ups.
Stockland has recently installed Amazon Locker across a number of convenient retail locations in NSW and Victoria. Locations include the Piccadilly Centre in Sydney CBD, Stockland Green Hills in Maitland, Stockland The Pines in Doncaster East as well as Stockland centres in Merrylands, Baulkham Hills, Balgowlah, Glendale, Nowra, Shellharbour, Wetherill Park, Point Cook and Wendouree, and others.
Amazon Locker provides customers with the flexibility to pick up a package at a convenient time, rather than having it delivered to a home or business address.
”Shipping to an Amazon Locker at Stockland is easy, secure and available at no additional cost,” said company in a statement.
During checkout, customers will select a Locker at the nearest Stockland location as their shipping address. Once their package is ready for pickup, customers will receive an e-mail along with a barcode that they’ll use to pick up their package during store hours.
