SUBJECT:  Change in UPS and Federal Express Service

The UCSD Shipping Division and the Mail Services Division are pleased to announce to the campus a change in the processing of small United Parcel Service and Federal Express items (70 lbs. or less). All of these types of shipments are now being consolidated to the Mail Services location on the campus. The intent of this consolidation is to centralize the processing of Federal Express and UPS items exclusively through the Mail Services Division, providing this service at a more convenient on-campus location.

The Mail Services Division is located on campus at the Campus Services Complex, Building A on the corner of Greenhouse and Voigt Drive. The Shipping Division is located at 7835 Trade Street, Suite 100, San Diego, CA 92121, which is approximately six miles east of campus on Miramar Road.

- Items are pre-packaged and addressed ready to be shipped
- Items will include the Index number, Mail Code, Name of Shipper, and their phone number
- Each package weighs less than 70 pounds
- NO HAZARDOUS MATERIAL (this includes Dry Ice)
- No Dutiable International items

- Dutiable International
- Items weighing over 70 pounds
