Smart. Secure. Efficient. Contactless Delivery.
In a world where package volumes are skyrocketing, Metroland Business Machines, in partnership with Quadient Parcel Pending, brings next generation parcel management to your workplace or campus.
Our Intelligent Parcel Lockers streamline package delivery, simplify pickup, and ensure a complete digital chain of custody — reducing costs, increasing efficiency, and improving user experience.
For Multifamily Communities
The Challenge:
More deliveries, less space.
Property managers across the country face skyrocketing package volumes. Managing deliveries manually takes staff time, leads to lost or misplaced items, and frustrates residents who can only retrieve packages during office hours.
Metroland’s Solution:
Metroland and Quadient’s Parcel Lockers automate your entire delivery workflow, giving residents and staff a safe, contactless, and trackable way to manage packages 24/7.
How It Works (3 Simple Steps):
- Delivery staff or carriers deposit packages into secure lockers.
- Residents receive instant email or text notifications with a unique access code.
- Residents pick up their packages at any time — day or night — using a barcode or PIN.
Contactless and convenient:
No waiting in line, no staff involvement, and no lost packages. Every transaction is logged automatically, creating a complete digital record.
For Commercial & Business Use
The Challenge:
Today’s hybrid and flexible workplaces have made package delivery more complicated. With employees working from different locations, personal deliveries arriving at work, and limited storage space, keeping packages secure and organized can strain your mailroom.
Metroland’s Solution:
Metroland and Quadient’s Intelligent Parcel Lockers replace manual tracking and hand delivery with a fast, automated, and fully traceable system.
- Reduce costs & manpower: staff simply scan and load packages into lockers — no sorting or delivery routes needed.
- Instant notifications: employees receive an email or text when a package is ready for pickup.
- Secure, contactless retrieval: staff or employees pick up at their convenience using a unique code or barcode.
- Complete accountability: proof of delivery includes a timestamp, digital record, and optional photo capture.
The result: faster distribution, better security, and happier employees.
For Colleges, Universities & School Districts
The Challenge:
Campus mail services face explosive growth in inbound packages — especially during semester starts or special events. Traditional mailrooms are overwhelmed by long lines, overflowing storage, and delays in notifying students.
Metroland’s Solution:
Our parcel lockers eliminate the chaos by giving students, faculty, and staff secure 24/7 self-service access to packages.
- Streamline campus mail: packages go straight from carrier to locker — no more hand sorting.
- Instant notifications: students are alerted immediately via email or text when packages arrive.
- Anytime pickup: 24/7 access with barcode or code entry — no waiting in line or limited hours.
- Flexible campus integration: deploy centralized hubs (student centers, libraries) or decentralized locker stations across residence halls.
- Multi-use convenience: lockers can double as pickup points for bookstore orders, IT assets, library books, or event tickets.
- Improve efficiency, reclaim workspace, and elevate the student experience.

Oversize Lockers
24/7 Access for Residents’ Biggest Deliveries.
