Residents must use the name registered with the university. Mail not properly addressed may be returned to sender.

Package Notification and Pick-Up Procedures:

You will receive an email notification from the university when you have a package to pick up. Emails from vendors (Amazon, UPS, FedEx, etc.) stating the package has been delivered does not mean the package has been delivered to Ohio State. Please wait for an email from the university.

To pick up a package, bring your BuckID to your designated front desk/package center during operating hours.

Amazon Lockers

Amazon lockers are available in several locations around the Columbus campus for package delivery. Select the specific locker location when placing your order on Amazon.com, then receive a pickup code once your package is delivered to the locker. Scan the barcode in the delivery confirmation email or use your Amazon app to unlock a door and retrieve your package.

Restaurant / Ready To Eat / Store-to-Door Deliveries

Front desks and package centers will not accept food deliveries, groceries, or other “store-to-door” items.

Residents ordering or receiving delivery of food, groceries, or other “store-to-door” items must meet their delivery at the time of arrival. Delivery drivers may not enter residential facilities.

Food deliveries, groceries, or other “store-to-door” items not picked up within 12 hours may be disposed. Housing and Residence Education is not responsible for items that are missing, opened and/or eaten.
