Tomorrow is Thanksgiving, meaning that your students have either already left campus or they will soon be heading home for the holiday. The package arrivals have slowed dramatically and will continue to do so over the next few days, as there are no students around to order and receive them, but don’t worry; everyone will return on Sunday and the package arrivals will start up again.
Here are a couple of package tracking software tips to help ensure that mailroom staffs are prepared to check-in packages and have all students pick up their packages quickly.
- Notification: Remember to check with recipients to ensure that they are receiving notifications from our package logging system in their preferred way. If they would rather be notified by a text message, that can be achieved! If they would prefer to have an email sent to them when their package is ready for pick up, that is also achievable. Our package tracking software is designed to allow for customizable package notifications so your students receive their alerts in their preferred medium.
- Notification Delay: Ensure that your staff is prepared for the onslaught of students that will be arriving to pick up their packages. By using the email delay feature of our package logging system, you can have the right amount of staff members in your mailroom to hand out packages to the recipients, who will arrive only when you are ready for them.
