From Columat we always highlight the advantages of acquiring a Smart Locker to better manage parcels and solve last mile problems. Lately these smart lockers are starting to become a key element for our cities, driving a new delivery channel adapted to the user and completely changing their shopping experience.
From now on, the collection points will be even more necessary and practical than ever, because from March the Barcelona City Council will charge the Amazon Tax to companies that invoice more than 1 million euros for shipments and deliver packages to private homes.
There are 26 companies that meet this requirement and will therefore have to pay the fee from March onwards. There is only one way they will not have to pay the fee, and that is by delivering all parcels to a collection point: the Smarts Lockers.
“We want to bring order to the distribution of goods by prioritizing the collection of parcels at specific points,” according to the first deputy mayor, Jaume Collboni.
Now is a good time to promote Smart Lockers, which will be of great help to these companies. They will create new opportunities and generate new parcel management channels.
Let's review the advantages of Smart Lockers:
The use of Smart Lockers is highly recommended and will become a differential advantage for cities that do not have them yet.
