Abstract
A system for parcel transport and tracking that operates responsive to data bearing records includes a plurality of geographically spaced repositories. The exemplary repositories include a plurality of enclosed compartment spaces. Access to each of the enclosed compartment spaces is controlled by a respective door which is in operative connection with a respective lock of the repository. Central system circuitry in operative connection with the repositories is operative to control access to the compartment spaces and to cause compartments to be selectively accessible so that selected parcels may be placed therein or removed therefrom. At least one data store in operative connection with the central system circuitry includes record data concerning repositories and customer pickup and delivery locations. Such record data is accessible and communicable to portable wireless devices of item carriers to facilitate the pickup and delivery of parcels at repositories, customer locations and other delivery locations.
