Amazon Lockers
 
Hi: I'm renting here and have been getting Amazon packages at the residence I'm at. When I checked most recent order it said at Amazon Lockers. How does one know what locker to check and do you need a special key or a code. Thanks.

If you placed the order, you must have specified a locker delivery which would have shown you the locker location. If someone else placed the order, you may need to contact them about the location.

By the way, I noticed that there are now Amazon lockers located at the 7-Eleven gas station near Colony Plaza.

I’ve had them transferred to USPS and delivered to our mail station, mail box/locker. But have never had notice for an Amazon locker.

I have never used the Amazon locker delivery service. What I would like to know is if this gives you a faster delivery or a slower delivery?

It gets dropped of by the delivery truck during its delivery route could be early or late it all depends.
I prefer deliveries to my residence haven’t had one stolen yet.

Normally comes to our house but occasionally gets transferred to post office

Locker dropoff is just a way for Amazon to save money on fuel from house to house deliveries, plus the driver can make more drops.

Amazon asks you when you do the checkout if you want to use locker. I know one location is 7-11 At Colony not sure where the second location is.

Scam?
 
Could this be a scam? Check the email address to see if legit?

You won’t get your locker number ahead of time. Your delivery email should have a QR code in it. You go to the location of the lockers it was delivered to (if you aren’t certain, check your order tracking in your Amazon account to confirm), there will be a touch screen with a scanner underneath. Scan your QR code from the email and it will automatically pop open your locker and show you your locker # on the screen. Super simple.

That depends on the locker location facilities. I have used several locker locations & none used a QR code. What they do, is use your phone & the Amazon app to connect to the locker via Bluetooth, click 'open locker' & the door opens.

Yes, I didn't indicate not to deliver at the house. So I went to the USPS box and in there was a key with the locker number on it which was there at the USPS at Bonivay. It even said, once you open the locker the key will stay in the lock so basically not to worry about it. Thanks for the help.
