Receiving
Central Receiving is the primary location for deliveries to the campus of Frostburg State University. Common carriers and small package carriers (UPS, etc.) deliver to this location. Receiving functions include unloading, inspection, verification, distribution or delivery and administrative record keeping. Deliveries made to Central Receiving consist of university purchase orders, university credit card orders and small parcels.

Delivery
Items received on university purchase orders are checked against purchase order quantities and specifications prior to delivery to the requisitioning department. Purchase order items are received, checked for visible damage, delivered and entered in PeopleSoft as received. Merchandise received from university credit card orders are delivered un-opened to the department that placed the order.

Please contact Central Receiving upon receipt of purchase orders not delivered by our staff (e.g. departmental pick up, delivery made by vendor, etc.), so PeopleSoft can be updated to reflect the acceptance of the order.

Returns
While making regular deliveries to campus departments, Central Receiving staff will pick up university merchandise that needs to be returned to vendors. Departments should notify Central Receiving when they have this need.

UPS
Central Receiving is a delivery and pick-up location for UPS. To monitor a shipment’s progress, use the UPS Tracking Tool.

Central Stores
Central Receiving maintains a supply of paper products for campus use. Materials are requisitioned using an internal purchase order form. Please contact Central Receiving at ext. 4250 to request forms.
