If you cannot access your mailbox or combination, please contact the Housing office for assistance, 2nd floor of Campus Village Building B. The mailroom staff in Joe West hall does not have access to mailbox combinations and will not be able to give it to you.
If your mailbox combination is not working, please go to the Joe West mailroom, and the mailroom staff can assist you in getting it to work, or will change it for you so it will work.
PACKAGES
If you receive a package through the USPS that requires a signature, it will be held at the St. James Post Office at 105 North 1st Street and you will receive a tan notification slip in your mailbox. If you wish to pick up your packages at the mailroom, we recommend that you notify your senders to use FedEx, UPS, DHL, or another carrier.
If you have a package waiting at the Joe West mailroom, you will receive an email notification. You can pick it up anytime we are open.
MYDIGITAL DOORMAN
We now offer MyDigital Doorman, a service which will help us process packages more efficiently in the Housing mailroom.
You will be receiving an email from MyDigital Doorman giving you a login and password. This service is completely optional. MyDigital Doorman will allow you to login and see if you have packages waiting in the Joe West mailroom, and see if mail has been sorted for the day. You will receive an email if you have a package waiting at the Joe West mailroom whether you use this service, or not. You can pick up your package anytime the mailroom is open. Please let us know if you are NOT receiving notifications, so that we can update your email address in our system.
