Mail and Courier

 

COVID-19 Update: All mail will continue to be delivered to current delivery points. University mail cannot be diverted to private addresses. It remains the responsibility of the Academic and Business Units to receive and distribute mail as required. Outbound mail should be placed in your outbound mail collection point. Please do not place postage paid envelopes in external mail boxes as they will be returned to sender – “postage insufficient”.

 

The University of South Australia has engaged Australia Post, Decipha and Startrack to provide a mail and courier service.

Courier

Courier service should be used for Metro, Intra State, Interstate and International bookings, when your package is time critical or you want to track delivery.

Ensure your package is clear of logos, old addresses or old bar codes, as this may cause your package delivery not to reach the correct destination.

Use the online booking system to organise parcel delivery as this will provide the relevant address and bar-codes labels. Ensure outgoing and return address information and contact number are included on your parcel. If you have more than one parcel, ensure that each parcel is labelled with this information.

Refer Star Track regarding courier services.
