Seems counterproductive considering those consolidated units only have 2 boxes for parcels for like 16 people. The carrier will go from being able to deliver most parcels in the individual boxes, to having to walk them to the door.
As an aside (I'm probably not the only one), my carrier probably hates that I only check the mail about once a week. I'm in no hurry to collect junk mail. Besides all that, anyone sending a letter is clearly in no hurry to communicate with me, so why should I be in a hurry to read?
