Secure handover: Access and drop‑off recommendations for company sites
How to hand over deliveries safely at Swiss company sites. Clear access lists, trained reception staff and defined temporary drop‑off points reduce risk and delays.
Quick answer
For secure handovers at company sites, use clear access lists, train reception staff and define temporary drop‑off points. These measures cut delays and unauthorised access in Zurich, Geneva, Basel and Bern.
Why clear rules matter
Unclear processes cause lost packages, extra calls and security gaps. A written access list, designated drop‑off points and a short handover protocol increase transparency. Couriers and reception staff know who can enter and where to leave parcels.
Access lists: structure and use
Keep an up‑to‑date access list for external couriers. Include name, company, vehicle registration, allowed time window and a contact person. Digital lists reduce errors; printed copies work well at small sites. Limit long‑term access and review entries regularly.
Reception training for safe handling
Train reception and security staff in package checks, identity verification and storage rules. Short sessions should cover: verifying shipping documents, taking photos when needed, securing valuable parcels and de‑escalation. Regular refreshers keep standards consistent.
Define temporary drop‑off locations
Set up several secure drop‑off points with a clear priority: reception zone, lockable depot room, and a supervised interim area. Label locations and record each handover digitally or on paper. Avoid public corridors and exposed outdoor spots.
Handover protocols and digital records
A brief handover protocol prevents misunderstandings. Record sender, recipient, parcel details, time, receiving staff name and photos if needed. Digital forms on tablets or phones make archiving simple. Ensure privacy and traceability in your records.
Common scenarios and practical tips
For deliveries outside reception, use a lockable interim storage with access control and a key log. For high delivery volumes schedule delivery windows. In multi‑tenant buildings keep separate drop zones and clear communication channels.
Frequently asked questions

Sender, recipient, parcel description, time, name of receiving staff and optionally a photo or signature.
How to protect drop‑off points from unauthorised access?
