Q: Do I need an appointment to drop off mail at CPO?
Q: I have an email that says my package has arrived! When will I receive it?
A: We process mail/packages throughout the day. During the months of August and September, processing time is slower due to increased volume. If you do not receive your package during mail pick-up or route delivery, email cpo@wheaton.edu. Include name, department, and tracking number. This will allow CPO to check for issues or delays.
Q: How do I prepare my mail for processing at CPO?
A: Make sure that your envelopes are all addressed properly and have a Wheaton College return address. Please include a department name or Postal account number on every piece of mail. Self-sealing envelopes should be sealed before sending them to CPO. Unsealed letters should have their flaps open and overlapping like this: 7777
Mail should be separated accordingly: On campus mail, domestic mail, international mail, prestamped mail. We suggest using paperclips or rubber bands when possible.
Q: I need more inter-office mailers! How do I get them?
A: To request additional Inter-office Mailers call CPO at x5083 or send an email to CPO@wheaton.edu. State your name and department and how many mailers you need. We will send those out to you on the next route.
