We apologize Mail Services is not set up to accept debit/credit cards, therefore we only accept CASH. Mail Services does not provide special mail services such as money orders, USPS tracking, delivery confirmation, signature confirmation, certified mail, express mail, registered mail, return receipt, mail insurance, international mail, etc. You may visit the nearest post office located downtown on Main Street or visit United States Postal Service.  NOTE: Procurement cards can be used to pay for special mail services (listed above).

Mail Services provides professional customer service when you purchase postage stamps, pick up department mail, mail first class items and/or mail items using Priority Mail. We have convenient drop slots for use before/after hours for stamped, metered and campus mail. You may purchase envelopes (see prices below) and/or rent a mailbox for personal use (faculty/staff only). Please contact Mail Services at ext. 7408 for rental rates. We are enrolled in the Easy Permit Postage Program for bulk/non-profit mailing. We maintain a supply of interdepartmental envelopes available upon request.
