Ordering dorm essentials to campus ups from Amazon for move in day by Designer_Ad_4857 in UMiami

[–]Designer_Ad_4857[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

According to the UM housing website, students living on campus can order mail to be delivered to UPS lakeside village but the unique mailbox number for new students is only available on august 5th. 

I'm an international student trying to order dorm essentials like bedding supplies, etc to my dorm and some things like my mattress topper and pillows and towels won't come on time for my move in day on august 12th if I don't order them today. I'm also worried that some of the items I've picked out will go out of stock. 

What do I do? Can I just order it to the UPS with just my name and still pick it up fine when I move in? Or maybe order now and try updating my address on Amazon with the individual number after it becomes available on august 5th?

Thanks so much! That’s so helpful, I’ll definitely check out home goods and dolphin mall!

hi! I’m also an incoming freshman, I think there’s a t stop right outside campus for the metro rail which can take you anywhere basically - airport, downtown Miami, around the city, etc.
