Mail & Package Receiving

Atkinson Hall has both campus mail and regular US postal services available.  Incoming mail arrives at Atkinson Hall in the late afternoon and it is then distributed to the designated locations determined by department admin shortly thereafter. We will have a better understanding of the approximate time in which USPS will be able to drop off packages once we have established a schedule with USPS.

Incoming packages from all carriers are received, sorted, delivered, and electronically logged by our loading dock staff (note: USPS packages are delivered to the Atkinson Hall designated spaces as noted above).  Never remove a package from the loading dock yourself, no matter the real or perceived urgency.  Disrupting the normal process will eliminate the ability to track the package, and we have had numerous incidents where this action caused great confusion and angst for lab groups.  If you have a question about a specific package you are expecting, please reach out to our team at atk-shipping@cornell.edu.

Incoming packages are tracked for delivery within Atkinson Hall via bar code, and you can reach out to our team at atk-shipping@cornell.edu to determine the status of a package.
