Abstract

A system includes a server, a company terminal for use by a delivery company, a recipient terminal for use by a recipient of a package, and a storage device including a container to store the package. When the storage device is selected, by the delivery company on the company terminal, to reserve the container, the delivery terminal transmits a request to reserve the container to the server. When the storage device receives the request from the server, the storage device reserves the container and transmits a notification indicating that the container is reserved to the server. When the server receives the notification, the server transmits information indicating that the container is reserved to the recipient terminal. When the recipient terminal receives the information indicating that the container is reserved from the server, the recipient terminal displays the information indicating that the container is reserved on the recipient terminal.
