In mid to late September, Canada Post delivered the Post Parcel Lockers to 6, 7 and 8 Park Vista without any notice to CAPREIT.
Pat Miller requested from Canada Post a proper poster to replace the one that was provided. It should include detailed information on how to use this new post parcel locker.
In the interim, please note the information as provided below:
CANADA POST PARCEL LOCKERHOW IT WORKS
Canada Post delivers a parcel and places it in one of the locker's larger compartment, then return the key to the designated slot.
CAPREIT has been advised that with the parcel locker installed in our respective buildings, Canada Post will make sure that the occupants are informed about the locker and how it works.
If all locker compartments are full, or a parcel requires a signature, the agent attempts delivery at the occupant's door. If no one is home, the agent leaves a Delivery Card Notice in the occupant's regular mailbox to pick up the item at the closest post office.
SPECIFICATIONS
The parcel locker is designed for apartment buildings and condo projects. It measures 34.25 inches wide, 18 inches deep and 67.32 inches high and holds six larger parcel compartments that are individually locked.
NEXT STEPS
The regional co-ordinator will contact CAPREIT to discuss needs and next steps., like choosing a locker location, taking measurements and scheduling.
Canada Post provides additional material on the parcel locker and its installation when they will meet with CAPREIT.
If the decision is to have a parcel locker require further approval, (i.e. head office) Canada Post representative will be available to address any questions.
If there are several buildings involved (as in the case of Park Vista), Canada Post will deliver parcel lockers to the property as supply allows. They may start with 1 location to guage occupants' response Canada Post encourages feedback.
