Amazon Lockers:
Here’s a great article about Everything You Need To Know About Amazon Lockers
Here’s my little recap from the show:
Delivering to a Locker:
-choose an Amazon Locker as the delivery method
-upon delivery, Amazon will send you a code
-when you arrive at the Locker, input your code on the screen.
-a compartment will open up and take your box!
Returning to a Locker:
-when selecting your delivery options, select “more options”
-select Amazon Locker and find your preferred location
-You print your label and pack it up.
-Arrive at the locker and select that you are returning on the screen
-Input your code that Amazon gave you with your return label details
-A compartment will open up. In my case, there was no way my box was going to fit in that tiny space, so on the touch screen, I selected “package is too big”
-so I closed the small compartment and a bigger compartment opened.
-put my package in, closed the door, and that was it!
