Preparing to Ship

When shipping departmental packages through UPS or FedEx's desktop shipping applications, you are responsible for:

  • Proper packing, marking, weighing, and addressing
    • Note: FedEx and UPS will not deliver to P.O. boxes
  • Complete and accurate documentation and customs requirements
  • Referencing shipment to an internal university account

Hazardous materials may be shipped via desktop shipping if the proper Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) certification has been acquired.
