The idea is to save people from having to wait for a delivery from building staff or adjust their hours so they can be home to greet the delivery person. Amazon is rolling out its system of delivery lockers to residential buildings across the US. The Hub service was soft launched a year ago, and the company says it is already available to 500,000 residents, with more being added every month. Similar to Amazon's previous delivery locker locations, the units for The Hub are located inside apartment buildings, with access controlled by a keypad. In addition to offering free delivery, The Hub also offers an option that allows residents to pay extra fees if they want their packages delivered directly from Amazon. As well as the installations, Amazon will provide 24-hour support for the system.
