Campus Mail Services
716-645-2743
CampusMail@buffalo.edu
Please no not attempt to pick up your packages from the mailroom until you have received the mailroom delivery notice.
Other carriers may send delivery notifications prior to the mailroom processing your package.
US Postal Service (USPS)
US Post Office (USPS) - Campus Mail works directly with the post office to have these items delivered directly to your area mailroom daily (Monday-Friday).
Letters (Flat Mail) will be delivered via mailbox by 6pm each day; no notification is sent when letters are delivered. Students are encouraged to check their mailboxes at least once a week as important University information is still sent this way (refund checks, University notifications, etc)
Packages / Perishables will be processed throughout the day as they are delivered. Students will be sent an email from ‘campuslivingparcels’ notifying them of the delivery and pick-up location. All USPS packages should be processed by 6pm daily. Campus Living has limited space for perishable items. We will attempt to store these items in a refrigerator, when available. Students who plan on having temperature sensitive medications shipped can contact Campus Mail for more information and to work out delivery details (campusmail@buffalo.edu).
Other Delivery Vendors (Amazon, FedEx, UPS)
Other Delivery Vendors deliver directly to residential mailrooms. Deliveries are made throughout the day. Although you may get a notice from the 3rd party vendor that your package was delivered, it is not available for pick up until it is processed by Campus Living and you are sent an email from ‘campuslivingparcels’ notifying you of the delivery.
Although we partner with all vendors, Campus Mail has limited authority to help with packages that are misdelivered, lost prior to receipt by mailroom, etc. Students should contact the company who sent the product to file a claim. Campus Living will hold packages for one month; after that time, unclaimed items will be returned to sender.
Each residential mailroom has an outgoing USPS mailbox for stamped letters. Students who need to send out parcels/packages, or utilize services such as a UPS store, can visit the student bookstore, located on the north campus, adjacent to the University Commons.
During the academic year (Aug – May) Campus Living will deliver mail and packages to your current on-campus address. If it is shipped to one location on-campus and you live in another, Campus Mail will not forward your mail/package during university breaks, mail/packages will still be processed in your mailroom.
After a student moves off-campus, Campus Living will follow the standards of the delivery vendor.
United States Postal Service (USPS): Forward domestic mail/packages for 1 year. Items will be sent to the mailing address listed in HUB. If there is no updated mailing information in HUB, Campus Mail will use permanent address on file.
Amazon: All packages are Return to Sender, Amazon will not forward.
Federal Express (FedEx): Varies based on item, consult vendor to discuss options.
UPS: All packages are Return to Sender, UPS will not forward.
Confirm the package was sent using the correct address format. See the example below for proper addressing.
Look online at the shipping vendors website to see the status of your delivery. Be sure to have the tracking number of the package.
Packages may take several hours after being received by Campus Living to be processed. Do not contact the mailroom until after 6pm if the package was delivered that day.
If the package was delivered prior to that day, contact your area mailroom.
If your mailroom has not received the package, please contact the person who shipped the item and initiate a lost package process with the shipping vendor.
Flat Mail
First Class Mail will be forwarded to the forwarding address on file within the UB HUB Student Center. Students without a forwarding address on file will have mail forwarded to their permanent address. If no forwarding or permanent addresses are on file, or it has been longer than one year since you resided on campus, the mail will be returned to the sender.
We are not able to forward Standard and Non-Profit mail, these types of mail will be disposed of as per USPS guidelines.
Please keep your forwarding and permanent addresses up to date in HUB.
Packages
USPS packages can be forwarded to the forwarding or permanent address in HUB - with the forwarding address being the first option.
NO other carriers including UPS, Fed Ex, Amazon, etc. forward packages. Packages sent by carriers other than USPS will be returned to the senders.
Flickinger Court residents have flat mail and USPS package services provided directly by the United States Postal Service. All issues with mail or package delivery should be directed to www.USPS.com.
Packages delivered by third party vendors, i.e. UPS, Fed Ex, Amazon, etc., will be held at the Community Center.
