Going to college thousands of miles away from home can be tough, but my day is always made when I receive a care package from my mom and have a safe and easy pickup through Parcel Pending by Quadient!

Who knew picking up packages on campus could be so secure and easy with Parcel Pending smart lockers?! Having multiple locations makes it so easy to swing by between classes.

—Rica R.

Typically, students only find me if they want to complain about something. But I had two students come and find me in my office recently and tell me how much they absolutely love using the lockers, which was a really pleasant surprise.

—Pam Burke

Director of Auxiliary Services, Shenandoah University

Parcel Pending by Quadient’s smart lockers are working great and have provided, among other benefits, the added advantage of eliminating person-to-person contact between mailroom personnel, staff and faculty.

—Blaine Gabriel

Director of Campus and Student Mail, Printing Services, Campus Signage, and Logistics, Ohio University

As an out-of-state student, I get a lot of packages sent both from home and from online shopping. Mail and packages at my apartment building are often left out for anyone to snatch, which makes me nervous if I am not home to grab them immediately. To avoid my packages being stolen, I like to send them to our Ferg Student Center where they’re kept safe, thanks to Parcel Pending by Quadient!
