Residence
Hall Mail Services
Mail and packages are picked up Monday through Friday from the post office and delivered to the Residence Halls. Each Residence Hall community has its own satellite mailroom facility and personnel who process the incoming letter mail and packages in accordance to their procedures.
Campus Mail closed on Saturdays
As of May 15, 2010 Campus Mail will no longer operate on Saturdays. Residence Halls will no longer receive mail or packages on Saturdays, including packages sent overnight through the USPS. However, if a student living in the Residence Halls needs to receive an overnight package on Saturday, an alternative would be to send the package UPS (United Parcel Services). UPS does operate on Saturdays and can deliver on Saturday to the Residence Halls if requested by the sender. Please see Best Mail Practices below for addressing Residence Hall packages.

Mail Practices:
* Do not send cash through the mail. Bulldog Bucks is the way to pay for goods and services both on and off campus. Visit the Bulldog Bucks website for further information:
www.bulldogbucks.uga.edu
*When using UPS, FedEx, or DHL, the sender “must” use the actual street address of the Residence Hall. The hall name is not sufficient and mail may be returned to the sender without the complete street address. Complete street addresses for Residence Halls can be found at the bottom of the webpage Addressing Mail
*When sending an important document or package to a student, send the item First Class with Certified Mail and Return Receipt. This will provide proof of when the document or package was mailed to the student as well as delivery confirmation with the signature of the person who received it.
