Payback math (200-unit property)

Indoor system: $25,000 one-time (or ~$540/mo financed 60 mo)
Staff time saved: 25 hrs/week × $20/hr × 52 = $26,000/year
Payback period: ~12–14 months on labor alone
Bonus lift: fewer lost-package claims, higher resident retention, marketing signal for tours

What drives the number up or down

Locker mix — more large slots = higher unit cost
Location — outdoor kiosks need electrical and pad; indoor systems need floor space and network
Refrigerated add-on — starts around $32,000 for a modest bank
Package room combo — smart package room adds $15,000–$38,000 depending on room size

FAQs

How much do smart package lockers cost per unit?

For 2026, expect roughly $60–$180 per apartment unit for a Luxer One® indoor system, depending on the locker mix, community size, and financing structure. A 200-unit property typically lands in the $18K–$35K range for indoor, or $28K–$65K for outdoor kiosks.

What is the payback period on package lockers?

Most 150+ unit communities recover the investment in 12–24 months through labor savings alone. At $20/hour, replacing 25 hours/week of package handling saves ~$26,000/year — before you factor in leasing NOI lift from higher resident satisfaction.

How does financing work?

Luxer One® through Locker Solutions offers financing and lease-to-own options with terms up to 60 months. Most communities can deploy with $0 down and predictable monthly payments below the labor savings they generate immediately.

What variables drive cost most?

In order of impact: (1) total locker slots needed, (2) locker size mix (large slots cost more), (3) indoor vs outdoor vs refrigerated, (4) site electrical and installation complexity, (5) any package room integration.

Do I need a locker for every unit?

No. Industry standard is roughly 0.5 slots per apartment unit for a mid-density community. High-volume Class-A properties may run closer to 0.7 per unit. Locker Solutions right-sizes the mix in the site survey.
