Online retail giant Amazon is reportedly in the works to develop a new kind of process when it comes to home deliveries that would safely place packages within the home.
Amazon is currently working with home automation companies Autumn and Garageio to help enable access to be granted on one-time basis' for delivery people.
A big problem when it comes to home package deliveries is the instance of packages getting stolen before the recipient can get home from work or elsewhere. The new home deliveries system could help to eliminate this problem altogether, while at the same time enabling the company to use less packaging. This is because the product wouldn't need to go through the traditional rough and tumble of shipping and simply be delivered in a much more careful manner.
