RSF does! To deliver in those high-rise buildings, like condominiums and corporate offices can get nasty from the perspective of the delivery staff.
Amid those excitement and anticipation from the customers, smiling at the drivers, and even asking them questions and making small talks, with those drivers responding optimistically to those, lies stress and tiredness inside.
In these high-rise buildings, there are usually multiple entrance doors, so finding the right entrance nearest to your customer can be a challenge, alongside other hurdles.
So, Amazon Flex is here to de-burden delivery drivers of this, and somehow ease the pain.
“Navigating multi-location delivery stops such as apartment complexes and commercial buildings can be challenging, especially when you’re trying to find the right entrance. That’s why we introduced smarter entrance navigation to help you get to the correct door faster, with less guesswork,” Amazon Flex told RSF.
Amazon Flex recently released a helpful guide outlining three tips to make these deliveries a whole lot easier.
First is finding the right entrance.
When you navigate several deliveries in similar stops, the Amazon Flex official app is updated to use mapping technologies to show you where the building entrances are. Not just a single building entrance, but the whole picture.
Amazon Flex discussed, “You’ll see one or more door icons on your map, each indicating a building entrance, with the single recommended entrance clearly highlighted. This can help reduce the time you spend finding the right entrance.”
Second is delivering to the same building in fewer stops.
“We understand that returning to the same building multiple times during a block can be frustrating. Our updated routing groups packages for single-entrance buildings into one stop or sequential stops, helping remove the need to revisit the same building later in your route,” Amazon Flex pointed out.
Furthermore, for establishments with several entrances, the app is intelligent enough to group packages by which entrance to use, helping these delivery staff reduce the time sorting packages.
Lastly, organizing packages the way you deliver.
If you got several packages for a building with a lot of entrances, the app sequences these in such a way that matches how you usually would navigate the building. The app initially groups your packages by entrance, then by floor, and then, by unit. That organized!
“This means you can gather the right packages for each entrance and deliver them efficiently, helping you avoid retracing your steps or returning to your vehicle for missed packages,” stated Amazon.
