Amazon Hub at The National: Secure Package Delivery for Apartments Made Easy

Online shopping is incredibly convenient. That is, until you’re juggling delivery windows, missed packages, and porch piracy fears. At The National in Old City, we’ve taken the stress out of receiving orders with our on-site Amazon Hub. This modern apartment amenity provides secure package delivery for residents. Whether you’re waiting on everyday essentials or holiday gifts, your parcels are ready when you are, without any scheduling issues or location guesswork.

What Is The National’s Amazon Hub?

Amazon Hub is a secure, self-service package system located right inside the community. Carriers deliver your packages to the Hub, and you receive an instant notification. Then, enter your unique pickup code (or scan via the app) to open the locker and grab your items on your schedule. It’s fast, private, and designed for today’s most common resident need: reliable, secure package delivery.

How It Works (in Three Easy Steps)

• Ship to The National: Use your community-approved shipping address.
• Receive Notification: When your package arrives, you’ll receive a text or email with a unique code or scannable barcode.
• Pick Up Anytime: Head to the Hub, enter or scan your code, and the locker opens. That’s it.

Why Our Old City Residents Love It

Skip the delivery drama. With The National’s Amazon Hub, residents get secure package delivery that fits real life with notifications when parcels arrive, easy self-serve pickup anytime, and protection from porch piracy. It’s fast, worry-free, and perfect for busy schedules (and the holiday rush).

Convenience

Shopping happens 24/7, and so does life. With the Hub, you can pick up packages early in the morning, late at night, or anytime in between. It’s a perfect amenity for commuters, frequent travelers, and anyone with a packed calendar.

Security and Peace of Mind

Residents don’t have to worry about their boxes being left in public spaces. Packages are stored behind a locked door with a unique access code for a genuinely secure package delivery experience. Only you can access your locker, and your items stay protected until you’re ready.

Works With Your Favorite Retailers 

The Hub isn’t just for Amazon orders. It’s designed to receive deliveries from multiple carriers, which means your shipments from major retailers can be routed to the same safe spot.*

*Carrier participation may vary by shipper and seller settings.

Fewer Missed Deliveries

Missed the doorbell? Not a problem. Couriers drop your parcel at the Hub even if you’re not home, preventing delays, re-delivery attempts, and return-to-sender headaches.

Private, Easy Pickups

Your unique access code or barcode keeps the process quick and discreet. No lines and no forms, just a simple grab-and-go process.

Holiday Shopping Benefits

The busiest shopping season shouldn’t create the most stress. The National’s Amazon Hub helps you stay ahead of the holiday rush by:

• Preventing Package Pileups: With consistent, secure package delivery, gifts don’t stack up outside your door.
• Keeping Surprises Secret: Discreet pickup means it’s easier to hide presents from curious roommates or family members.
• Adhering to Your Unique Schedule: Traveling for the holidays? The Hub holds your package safely until you’re back.
• Allowing You to Order with Confidence: Buy early and buy often. Your deliveries won’t be missed because of a meeting, commute, or winter weather.

Shopping Tips for Residents 

• Set Alerts in Your Shopping Apps: Turn on delivery notifications so you know the moment a package hits the Hub.
• Consolidate Shipments: When possible, choose grouped deliveries for fewer boxes and fewer pickups.
• Mind Gift Timing: Order earlier than usual during the holidays; carrier networks get busy, but your pickup stays effortless.
• Hold High-Value Items at the Hub: When offered a delivery choice at checkout, choose the most secure option to keep electronics and special gifts safe.
