General Information-Receiving: Receiving is responsible for the delivery of all incoming packages that come to the university both without p.o.'s (purchase orders) and with p.o.'s. Packages without p.o.'s are forwarded to Mail Services for delivery. Packages ordered on p.o.'s will be delivered to departments by receiving. Personal items may not be shipped to or from the university, as state facilities may not be used for personal business.

General Information-Shipping: Shipping is responsible for all outgoing packages, p.o. returns, warranty repairs, U.P.S. Ground Rate and U.P.S. Overnight Rate. Overnight packages will be shipped out via U.P.S. due to our Discount Rate Agreement with U.P.S. However, under special circumstances, other couriers such as FedEx, Airborne, and D.H.L. are available (please call S&R in such cases). There are two U.P.S./Postal Service overnight drop-site locations on campus: The hallway just outside the personnel department and the hallway just outside D.D.H. Room D100.There you will find shipping envelopes and Shipping Information Forms. The deadline for these two drop-sites is 2:30 p.m. If this deadline cannot be met, please call S&R and bring the package to S&R no later than 3:30 p.m. Any package later than 3:30 p.m. will have to be taken to an off-campus drop-site by the department. Departments are responsible for preparing packages for shipment. A supplies and services (s.& s.) account number must appear on the address label before Shipping will send your packages. Charges associated with shipping will be forwarded to the Accounting Office weekly. The s.& s. account number specified on your package will be charged accordingly.
