If you are sending something out for official University Business, you must have a request form that includes the delivery address, the weight of the package, the chartfield(s), and a signature. If you only have a PO Box for the recipient, you can only use US Postal Service.<\/p>\n
The University of Maine mail room uses a barcode label for its billing system. Package up your shipment and give to Molly with the signed request form. A barcode label will be printed and applied to the package. If the package is large, you may be required to deliver it to the mail room, otherwise it will be put down in the outgoing mail box. The mail room will apply the correct postage, mail out the package, and charge your account for the postage. If you want to insure or track the package, you would have to put a note on the package with instructions for the mail room.<\/p>\n
The Department has a UPS account that offers a discount and we can call for a pick up. We have per-printed supplies in room 210 with a tracking number.\u00a0 As long as you call by 3:30 pm, they will pick up any package the same day you call. They are reasonably priced, they provide a tracking number, and you can ask for a signature upon delivery.\u00a0 Again, you must have a request form – make sure you give Katherine a copy of the shipping label attached to the signed request form.\u00a0 If you have a UPS Air Letter or Pak, there is a drop box located outside of the Memorial Gymnasium that gets picked up at 4:30 pm Monday-Friday so we do not have to call for a pickup.<\/p>\n
The University of Maine has a discount program with FedEx. We have pre-printed supplies in room 210 with a tracking number.\u00a0 FedEx picks up Express Packages at the University mail room every afternoon.\u00a0 If the package is rather small (about the size of a paper box), you can put a FedEx shipping label on it and put the box with the outgoing mail. Make sure you give Katherine a copy of the shipping label attached to the signed request form.<\/p>\n
If you miss the daily mail pickup at around 11:15 am, you can take it to the mail room before 3:00 pm or we can call FedEx for a pick up. We must call before 3:00 pm. If the package is to go FedEx Ground, we must call for a pick up and they will not come until the next day. If you have a Next Day Air envelope, there is one drop box outside of the Memorial Gymnasium that gets picked up at 4:30 pm Monday-Friday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
