Fall Move In Package Tracking

It’s officially back to school time!  By now most of your residents have likely moved into their dorms and your mail room is up and running at full speed – but is it running as speedily as it could?  Students are always equipped with a “back to school guide” so why can’t your mail room be equipped with one too? Here is our student housing mail center Back to School Guide for package tracking.

Never lose a single textbook with…

Organization.  That probably seems obvious but it’s easy to completely underestimate the powers of organization. Organizing your student housing mail center efficiently will cause less chaos among workers during peak package times; ensure less time is spent trying to find a package when a student comes to pick it up or when it’s time to deliver it; and decrease stress among workers because they aren’t constantly tripping over packages that don’t have a home.  Have a place for every single package you store.  If you start running out of room, make sure those packages are being delivered or picked up immediately by using instant automated text and email notifications. Don’t have that capability? Ask us about it!

Communication.  If you know that you won’t have time to deliver packages until 2 pm every day, or you only have workers available for students to pick up their packages between 12pm and 5pm, then ensure those restrictions are well known. Communication is equally important when assigning tasks to your staff. Separate each role so each student worker has a clearly defined task list, and be sure to check with them regularly to see if they have questions. Your student housing front desk will run far more smoothly if everyone knows what they should be doing when they get to work that day.

EZTrackIt!  Package tracking software is essential for any mail room center.  Our simple software allows front desk workers to quickly log incoming packages, so you can handle  hundreds of textbooks coming in every semester or quarter without feeling overwhelmed. Then, EZTrackIt can send out automated notification emails to let recipients know when to come and pick up their packages, or that their packages are on their way to be delivered.  You also have the option to go paperless and get rid of that massive binder.  You’ll save effort, space and most importantly, time.

Ready to streamline your student housing mail center package management? You don’t need to be an engineering major to make your mail room work like a well-oiled machine – Ask us how EZTrackIt can get you ready for Back to School days this Fall!
