The University of Waterloo Central Stores Shipping Department is located in the ECH (East Campus Hall) building at 263 Phillip Street. The department provides a third-party shipping system called 2Ship for all outgoing shipments leaving the University.
To use 2Ship, you must be a full-time faculty or staff member. If you are not yet a user, please complete the 2Ship application form (pdf)
For all 2Ship system issues, shipping advice, or to arrange pickups (including large crates, heavy equipment, or skid shipments), please email Trevor Beatson.
Shipping Cut-off Time: 2:30 p.m. Monday–Friday (contact the shipping office for exceptions).
Important notice for USA shipments:
When entering commodity items under the "Contents" section of the 2Ship form, please ensure the correct Country of Manufacture is entered for each item.
Shipments valued over $800 USD require additional documentation if:
- The items were manufactured in the U.S.A., or
- The items were manufactured outside the U.S.A. but exported from the U.S. within the past three years.
Use a Manufacturers Affidavit form,(completed and signed by the manufacturer). Upload the completed form to the Order Documents section of the 2Ship form.
If this form cannot be obtained, you must instead complete and upload both a Foreign Shipper Declaration form and an Importer Declaration form.
