• Must provide ID when retrieving mail or packages.
• The receiver on the package is the only person that can retrieve the package.
• The Document Source does not take cash.

 

Federal law prohibits mail from being permanently forwarded from an open box. The
patron must close the box, return the key, and fill out a Change of Address form in
person.

All mail to be metered must be dropped off at the front counter at the University
Mail Center and signed in by the person leaving it. Department name and Budget number
must also be provided. Mail must be sorted by Departments and placed in the appropriate
bins labeled “Handwritten” and “Typed”. Budget number must be written visibly on the
mail to be metered or it will be returned to the department. All mail must have completed
“To” and “From” addresses.Please be sure to keep Domestic and International mail separate.
The country of destination is required on International Mail following the address.Meter
machine operation begins at 10:00 a.m. Monday through Friday. Mail is metered throughout
the day until courier pick-up at 3:00 p.m.

 The correct placement for the Return address is the upper left corner of the envelope
or address label. The address of the designee/recipient should be placed slightly
below and to the left of center of the envelope and the postage should be placed in
the upper rightcorner of the envelope or item to be mailed. Please note that a return
address must always be included. An article that does not have a return address, if
undeliverable, will be sent to the Dead Letter Office in Atlanta, GA. Do not secure
postage with tape. The item will be returned to sender as undeliverable.

When addressing International Mail, the delivery address should be printed in all
uppercase letters. The name of the place of destination and the name of the country
of destination must be written in capital letters together with the correct post code
number or delivery zone number, if any. If possible, the address should have no more
than five lines. Some examples:

Mr John Clarkson
120 Rowan Drive

GREAT BRITAINMsJ D Station
Apartado 1456

Exception: to Canada, there must be two spaces between the province abbreviation and
the postal code, as shown below.

Ms Hannah Sellers

checks, money orders, etc.).Pleasesee the InternationalMail Manual available in theUniversity

mail being sent to the international post office instead of the military post office.
