Our staff cannot guarantee availability of items that are shipped the day before the event.

Shipping FROM Career Showcase

Pick-up will be available at the event. FedEx and UPS shipping forms and very limited packaging supplies will be available. To help with the shipping process, please follow these simple steps:
  • Bring any pre-printed shipping labels you may have.
  • Know your shipping account number for use with FedEx or UPS forms.
  • Stop by the shipping table near the Gate 4 info desk 
  • Have the address where you want it shipped
  • Know the type of shipment you want -- overnight, 2-day, etc.
  • Have your company account number
  • Know the number of containers you will be shipping. (Note: You do not need to haul the containers with you for this!)  
  • Barcode labels will be printed for your use. 
  • After the event, simply pack up your displays and boxes, put a label on each package and leave it on (or in front of) your event table. 
  • A freight crew will take it to the loading area for you. We ask you to allow us to do this to free the use of the freight elevator for our crew.
SPECIAL CARRIERS
  1. Most carriers (including those with pre-paid arrangements for shipping) WILL require you to call them the day you wish them to pick up your packages. Without a call, they will not come.  
  2. The event will end at 3:00 pm. When calling, ask for a pickup time NO EARLIER THAN 4:00 pm. This will allow you time to pack and allow us time to get your items to the pickup location for you. If your items are not readily available at the loading location at the time the driver arrives, they will be left.  
  3. At the end of the event if you have already called for a pickup, simply pack your items and displays, put them on top or in front of your event table, attach any paperwork which may be needed by the carrier, and allow our freight crew to move the items to the pickup areas for you.
Shipping Information for Career Events other than Showcase

Shipments for an event are only accepted for roughly 10 days prior to your event -- see the shipping information on the event's webpage for exact dates.  Shipments should arrive two days prior to your event. Our staff cannot guarantee availability of items that are shipped the day before the event.

Please address your shipments as follows
Attn: Name of Event, Your Organization's Name

Prior to your arrival, you need to arrange post-event shipment. The Career Resource Center can serve as a pick-up location for your items, but we are not able to arrange the shipping for you.

Please Note: All outgoing shipment after the event must be arranged by you before hand; the CRC does cannot ship items from an event.
