Can University housing reserve the right to detain your mail.?

They’ve indicated service hours from 8-5PM to pick up mail. Although, I work from 7am-8pm Mon-Fri. My mail is urgent and imperitive to my education. It’s not indicated anywhere in their policies.

They are open reasonable hours. They are not detaining your mail.

Your mail is your property, so no, they cant “detain it”. But since they are open reasonable hours, and you are just not available reasonable hours…. that is not THEIR fault, it is YOURS.

either:

1. Get a PO BOX at a post office or The UPS Store, etc. that has 24 hour access. You can even forward your mail if you want so nothing accidently goes to the wrong place.

-or-

2. Get a friend to pick up your mail.

-or-

3. Get your mail during lunch, on Saturday, or some other time that you can get over there and pick it up.
