We provide mailboxes, package pickup, and package tracking services to students.
Mailboxes
Students have the option to register for a mailbox on their housing registration form. If you are not sure of your mailbox or would like to register after your housing form is complete, please stop by the mail room. Letters are delivered to these mailboxes Monday through Saturday before 5PM. Having trouble opening your new mailbox?
Packages
Students who receive packages or mail that contains tracking information, will be notified via e-mail to their student email account with pickup instructions. You must show your own Lindenwood ID in order to obtain any accountable mail.
Due to the high amount of incoming packages, students should wait until they receive an email stating the package is ready to pick up.
If you can't pick up your package during our operating hours, you may notify us via e-mail at MailServices@lindenwood.edu that someone else will be picking up your package. To do so, send a message to MailServices@lindenwood.edu with the header Alternate Pickup, and include your name and theirs. In order to check the package out to them, we must have received this message and seen their Lindenwood ID. Do not reply to the automatic receipt e-mail. That is a no-reply address.
Package Tracking
Our package tracking services are generally used when things go wrong, and we understand that these situations can be very stressful. In most cases, the package is on campus and can be picked up the same day as the inquiry. Please contact us via e-mail at MailServices@lindenwood.edu with the tracking information and your preferred method of contact, and we'll run our search and contact you as soon as possible.
