Abstract

A method for more efficiently delivering goods to recipients is disclosed herein. Such a method includes obtaining a unique identifier (e.g., tracking number, order number, product number, etc.), wherein the unique identifier is associated with an order of goods intended for delivery to a recipient. The method further includes obtaining an access code for association with the unique identifier. The access code enables a delivery agent to gain access to an enclosure of the recipient for deposit of the goods therein. In certain embodiments, the access code is a temporary access code that expires once the delivery is fulfilled or the enclosure is accessed, thereby reducing the chance of unauthorized access to the enclosure. The method may also enable parameters (e.g., restrictions, constraints, conditions, etc.) with regard to use of the access code to be established. A corresponding system is also disclosed.
