Shipping Recommendations

  • Preferred Carriers: We strongly recommend having packages shipped via USPS, UPS, or FedEx.

  • Amazon Deliveries: Due to Amazon’s use of third-party contract drivers, packages are occasionally misdelivered across campus. To guarantee you receive your order, we strongly encourage using an Amazon Locker as your delivery location. There are multiple locations around the campus that you can use.

Processing Times

  • Standard Packages: Expect up to a 2-day delay for processing after a package arrives on campus.

  • Priority Mail: Processed ahead of standard shipments.

  • Urgent Items: For time-sensitive items, use Overnight Mail (any carrier), as these shipments receive top priority sorting.

Parents

  • Address Format: Always include your student’s full name and their specific Wes Mail # on all mail and packages. Items missing a mail number will be returned to sender.

    Mailing Address Format: [Student Name] 45 Wyllys Ave, Wes Mail #XXXXXX Middletown, CT 06459

  • Flowers & Perishables: WesStation is closed on weekends. Please ensure flower deliveries are scheduled for weekdays only.

Amazon Fresh / Whole Foods Deliveries

  • No Student Names: Grocery shipments from Whole Foods do not include recipient names on the delivery label and are not accepted or stored at WesStation.

  • Direct Hand-Off Required: Please schedule deliveries directly to your residence hall and ensure you are present to meet the driver upon arrival.
