Package management for condo buildings

Online shopping has turned many condo front desks into mail rooms. MYBOS gives your team a proper system for logging packages, telling residents and recording who picked up what.

Package management is a named MYBOS module, on the web and in the mobile app.

Example condo building

Packages at the front desk

4 packages
  • Unit 503, large box

    Logged with photo, resident notified by SMS

    Waiting
  • Unit 1109, envelope

    Picked up, signature captured

    Picked up
  • Unit 207, refrigerated

    Stored in the package room, notified

    Waiting
  • Unit 812, box

    Not picked up for 7 days, reminder sent

    Overdue
From delivery to pickup, with a record of each step.

What does package management software do?

It records every package that arrives for residents, tells them it is there, and records who picked it up and when.

Paper package logs work until there is a dispute. A resident says a package never arrived, or someone else took it, and the front desk has no photo, no signature and no clear time. A digital system gives you the proof.

What does MYBOS package management include?

Everything a front desk needs, from delivery to pickup.

  • Fast logging by unit, package type and storage location
  • Automatic notifications by email or SMS as soon as the package is saved
  • Photos taken at logging as a record of condition and receipt
  • Digital signatures at pickup on a touchscreen or USB signature pad
  • Overdue reminders for packages that have not been picked up
  • Barcode scanning as an optional add-on for faster logging and pickup

How does a package move through MYBOS?

Four steps, all recorded.

  1. Package arrivesSelect the unit, package type and storage location, add a photo and scan the barcode if you have the add-on.
  2. Resident is notifiedAn email or SMS goes out automatically when the package is saved.
  3. Resident picks upFind the package in the pending list and capture a signature.
  4. Record is keptThe package moves to the collected archive, searchable and exportable.

Why does a condo front desk need a package system?

Because packages are now one of the biggest daily jobs at the desk, and one of the most common sources of complaints.

A proper system saves staff time, cuts down on residents asking whether something arrived, and protects the building when a package goes missing. Residents can also see their packages in the MYBOS resident app. The same front desk can manage visitors with visitor management.

Package management questions, answered

How are residents told a package has arrived?

MYBOS sends an email or SMS automatically when the package is saved. Default settings mean staff do not have to choose notifications every time, and notifications can be resent if needed.

Can we capture a signature at pickup?

Yes. MYBOS can capture a digital signature at pickup on a touchscreen or USB signature pad, so there is a clear record of who collected each package.

What happens to packages nobody picks up?

You can set automatic overdue reminders. The package stays in the pending list until it is collected, so nothing gets forgotten in the package room.

Can staff manage packages from a phone?

Yes. Package management is fully available in the MYBOS mobile app as well as the web portal, so staff can log and hand out packages away from the desk.

Do we need a barcode scanner?

No, but it helps in busy buildings. A barcode scanner is available as an optional add-on to scan package IDs at logging and find packages quickly at pickup.
