Mail Services

On-Campus 

Campus mail service allows members of the campus community to send mail to one another at no cost.

Using Campus Mail:

  • Use a reusable campus mail envelope for all campus mail.
  • Include the following on the envelope:
    • Recipient’s name
    • Department name
    • Building name and room number
  • Ensure the envelope is securely sealed. Do not use staples; they can cause injury.
  • Ordering envelopes:
    • Large orders: through the Central Stores online catalogue
    • Small quantities: email request for used on-campus envelopes to Wes Stewart

Pickup & Delivery:

  • Mail is typically picked up and delivered once per day.
  • Buildings with reduced mail activity may see less frequent pickups.
  • Order of pick-up and delivery times may vary.
  • Service may be impacted by staffing levels or operational constraints.

Same-Day Mail:

Departments that want mail processed the same day and have missed their pickup or haven’t received a pick-up can bring mail to the Central Stores (ECH) Mailroom by 1:30 p.m. to ensure it reaches Canada Post the same day.

Reference:

A full list of University of Waterloo departments and building mailroom locations, is available in the Department Mailroom locations.
