Fast and cheap book return service at Phillips Hall Post Office

12/11/15

Now through the end of finals week, bring your UPS and FedEx PREPAID book returns to the retail register at Phillips Hall Post Office.

• If your package is already sealed and ready to ship, just give it to one of our staff. There is no charge!  If your label needs to be attached, just ask for a clear adhesive label pouch. They’re free to use.

• If your package needs to be sealed with tape we will do that and attach your label for just $1 per package (cash only).

• If you don’t have any packaging, we can sell you a mailer for $1 (cash only). We’ll pack up your shipment and attach your label. These can usually accept a couple of books, depending on size. 

If your shipment requires different packaging you may purchase generic padded mailers for the regular retail price. These are self-sealing and you can prepare them yourself for free, or give it to us and we’ll prepare it, along with your label, for $1 (cash only).     

Don’t forget to reuse your boxes. You kept the ones your books originally came in, right? If not, just check the recycling or ask at the Post Office window. But supplies are limited and they run out quickly.  

Note that USPS (US Mail) branded shipping products are not permissible for use with UPS or FedEx shipments. The Post Office will not provide you any for this use. If you present a UPS or FedEx shipment in USPS packaging, we will not be able to accept it and your shipment will have to be repackaged.

This service is exclusive to prepaid UPS and FedEx shipments. All US Mail packages, prepaid or otherwise are still handled as normal at the postal window.

NOTE: Package tracking is the responsibility of the sender. Mail Services keeps no records of outgoing prepaid shipments. If you don’t have a copy of your tracking info, just take a pic of your shipping label before you hand off your package to us.
