Mail Delivery

 

Mail is delivered to all residence halls by the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) and Campus Mail Services (inter-campus mail). The address format required by the USPS is below:

Student Name
Room and Building (full building name - Rodney Hall A)
Street Address Room Number (if A or B no hyphens)
Newark, DE 19717 - XXXX (zip code)

Example:
Bobby Blue Hen
100A Thomas McKean Hall
162 David Hollowell Way Rm 100A
Newark, DE 19717-xxxx

U.S. Mail is delivered directly to the residence halls Monday through Saturday, when the residence halls are open. Please do not include University of Delaware in the address. It is important to use the correct full zip code. If the line "University of Delaware" is included, delivery may be delayed if the mail goes to Campus Mail Services first and is then delivered to the residence hall the next business day. Use the correct residence hall zip code 19717 -xxxx, not 19716 (this is for offices only).

PACKAGE DELIVERY
All packages should use the same address format mentioned above.

If your student lives in a residence hall on Laird Campus (Christiana Towers, George Read, Ray Street, Independence East or West) they may pick up their packages at the Christiana Commons Front Desk between the hours of 9am-9pm daily.   

On all other parts of campus, if your student is receiving a package from any delivery company other than U.S. Mail (USPS), they may pick up their packages at the Trabant University Center, Room 156, between the hours of 9am-5pm, Monday-Friday.  Students will be notified via e-mail when they receive a package.

Generally, on all parts of campus, packages sent through U.S. Mail (USPS) which require no signature will be delivered with the daily U.S. Mail directly to the residence halls. These packages will be available for student pickup during evening office hours.

USPS mail or packages which require a receipt signature may be delayed if the resident is not available when the delivery person attempts to deliver.

 

PERISHABLES

Perishables (i.e., flowers, refrigerated medications) should be sent only when prior arrangements with the residents have been made to arrange receipt.

Questions about mail or package delivery should be addressed to Campus Mail Services at 302-831-2158.
