Mailing Addresses
Please DO NOT use the Stony Brook University main campus address as a delivery address for any residential mail as this may result in lost or misdirected mail. The address 100 Nicolls Rd, Stony Brook, NY 11794 should be used for GPS purposes only as directions to the campus. Residential mail will NOT be received through this address.
When placing online orders for items eligible for pickup through the Residential Mailrooms or when communicating to friends and family the address to use when sending care packages from home, please use the format below:

Grocery deliveries (i.e. Whole Foods) and take out meal deliveries (i.e. DoorDash) are not eligible for Residential Mailroom services. Items selected as "ship from store for same day delivery" (a service used by some retailers such as Amazon, Walmart, Apple Store, etc.) arrive in unmarked bags directly from the facility and are unable to be scanned for pickup through your assigned Residential Mailroom. When ordering any such item, please coordinate delivery times with these shipping services and make arrangements to meet these independent delivery drivers directly in your Residential Community. Be sure to provide them with your phone number when placing the order.

Please note that Irving Warehouse is not the same as Irving Residential Mailroom. One of the operational changes includes a centralized delivery point for standard delivery services (UPS, USPS, FedEx, etc.). The centralized delivery point on campus is called Irving Warehouse. Deliveries will be received there and the mailroom team will deliver to the individual mailrooms. Residents are not assigned to pick up from the Irving Warehouse location. However, students need to format the address for deliveries accordingly. The pickup location will be your assigned mailroom which can be found under the topic, "Where does your area pick up mail?"
When you receive notifications from your purchasing agents it will likely indicate “delivered” or “delivered to agent”. This notification does not necessarily mean that mail services has your package in our possession. As a reminder, please do not pick up a package until you receive an email with a barcode from CampRes_Mailroom@stonybrook.edu.
If you have not received a pickup barcode within 48 hours of confirmed delivery, please send an email to CampRes_Mailroom@stonybrook.edu with the tracking number for further assistance.
Refrigeration is not guaranteed for perishable deliveries. When expecting a perishable shipment, please be proactive about monitoring the tracking details and plan the pickup of such items accordingly.
With the increased volume of food deliveries to the Residential Mail Rooms (especially an increase in commercial meals such as Plated, Hello Fresh, Blue Apron, etc...), we have had to initiate some additional mail delivery protocols for these very perishable packages.
- Any Perishable Food Packages must be picked up within 48 hours of notification to the student. Out of an abundance of caution to prevent consumption of spoiled food, perishable items not retrieved within 48 hours will be discarded. These food items spoil at a very quick rate, and the mailrooms do not have sufficient refrigeration space to house the volume of these packages being delivered.
- If you plan to be away from campus, you should avoid scheduling deliveries of any perishable items. Please speak with the vendor to arrange for a delivery date when you are around. If the delivery date is unavoidable, and you are unable to pick the item(s) within 48 hours, please have another individual pick the item(s) up for you. Please email CampRes_Mailroom@stonybrook.edu. requesting this accommodation and provide the name of the individual that will be picking up for you. The individual will be required to present University / government issued ID to confirm identity.
- If a perishable package is delivered and its contents is leaking or shows evidence of spoilage, the package will be discarded by our staff immediately - even if prior to the 48-hour pickup window. In the event that a package has been discarded due to these reasons, you will receive an email notifying you of the items disposable from the Residential Mail Room staff.
The increase in food deliveries to the Residential Mailrooms are causing problems not only for the person who ordered the items, but for the other students whose packages are being impacted by leaking or other contaminated parcels in the vicinity of their packages.
Thank you for your anticipated cooperation to ensure the health and safety of the entire residential community.
The U.S. Postal Service provides free domestic forwarding for First Class letters for approximately 6 months. Since this process is handled manually by the local Post Office, please be sure to contact any person and/or agency from whom you might be expecting mail and let them know of your new mailing address. This should include any banks, government agencies, credit cards, NYS Payroll, as well as any auto-ship services. When forwarding services expire, mail will be returned to the sender. If we receive mail for a student who is no longer living on campus, and a forwarding address was not provided, the mail will be “Returned to Sender.”
Mail Hold is availble upon request for residents temporarily relocating. For example, those leaving campus for the Summer Session, but moving back into the Residence Halls for the following Fall Semester.
Please contact the mailroom staff directly to request Mail Forwarding or Mail Hold.
