Deliveries during the holiday remote education period 

General Stores & Receiving

During the holiday remote education period, many buildings on campus may be closed and unable to accept packages for delivery. We expect that you are already aware of how your department may be impacted during this time and have planned accordingly. Your department may choose alternate delivery options for home delivery, as outlined here. If General Stores & Receiving receive calls for help from carriers attempting to deliver packages to a closed building, we will instruct them to deliver the package to the receiving department. From there it can be picked up by your department in WILL CALL with your University ID, or delivery can be arranged per your request.

When ordering from General Stores during this time period when a building is closed, please ensure you put “WILL CALL” in the special instructions if you desire to pick up the delivery from General Stores and Receiving.

FedEx, UPS, U.S. Postal Service (USPS), and Campus Mail deliveries

University Print & Mail Services would like some information that will allow us to help your department receive mail and packages during the Holiday Remote Education period from November 26, 2020 to January 19, 2021. 

Our questions to you

If your department will be closed or changing hours, please contact Juan Sosa at juan.sosa@utah.edu or 385-290-8878 with your answers to the following questions:

1. Which departments will be closed and unable to receive FedEx, UPS, USPS, and Campus Mail packages?
2. When will your department officially close?
3. When will your department re-open and be ready to resume normal package/mail delivery after the Holiday Remote Education period?
4. If your department plans to be open part-time, what will your open hours be and how would you like your mail/packages delivered?

Note: USPS can only deliver mail to offices that are open on a regular schedule. If notified, Print & Mail can receive your USPS mail and packages on your behalf. We’ll sort it and hold it at our facility until it is picked up or until regular mail delivery resumes.
