In our experience, we would have 2 employees working the night drop bags until the lobby opened. Then once the lobby opened, the bags were still worked under dual control however only when customers were not present. Many years ago when I worked at a commercial bank, we had PT staff that worked early mornings so that all bags would be worked in an efficient manner and maintain dual control. Does your volume support additional staff? What time does your exisiting staff arrive to work the night drop? When I worked with the PT staff we would arrive at 7am to start night drop before the lobby opened at 9 am. We were able to process a majority of the bags before waiting on customers.
