Mail & Deliveries
Located in Facilities Services Building 101, the Mail Room coordinates on-campus delivery of mail and packages.
Campus departments or organizations cannot be reimbursed for postage and postage stamps.
Contact Creative Services at 507.457.5025 for printing envelopes with the WSU return address.
Contact the Mail Room at mailroom@winona.edu to order inter-campus envelopes.
WSU has the following permits with the US Postal Service (USPS):
- Bulk Mail
- Business Reply
- Postage Due
Use the Shipping Services Form (PDF) to send domestic deliveries.
Outgoing metered mail leaves the Mail Room around 1pm each day. Letters received after 1pm may not go out until the next day.
It is difficult to pick up a lot of extra mail while on the normal mail route.
If there is excess mail to be picked up, call the Mail Room at 507.457.2433 or email mailroom@winona.edu to arrange for a special pick up.
Since the volume of mail and packages fluctuates daily, the Mail Room cannot guarantee morning delivery to all departments.
Do not have personal mail sent to Winona State University.
Outgoing international mail should be identified as such by wrapping a rubber band around the envelope(s).

Key Requests
WSU employees can have access to building keys with authorization from the Dean or Department Chair.
For security purposes, there may be restrictions on certain key requests. These restrictions are determined by the WSU Locksmith and are considered on a case-by-case basis.
All building key requests are processed through Facilities Services.
After receiving the Key Issuance Form via intra-campus mail, send the form with the proper signatures back to the Facilities Services Main Office.
The requester will be contacted when the key is ready. For security reasons, the key must be picked up and signed for by the requester.
Signage Requests
WSU employees can submit a signage request for department wall signs, department suites, and individual offices.
Surplus Property
Surplus property is any state-owned property that is obsolete, unused, not needed for a public purpose, or ineffective for current use.
This includes equipment, materials, supplies, books, printed matter, buildings, and other property.
Advertised surplus items must be used on campus. You cannot take them home for personal use.
If you or your department has surplus items, these items must be advertised to the campus community for at least 7 days.
To advertise surplus items, complete the following steps:
- Owner of the surplus items sends a brief description, quantity, photos, location, and contact email of the items to surplus@winona.edu.
- Facilities Services will advertise the items by sending a notice to all employees via the WSU-Surplus email address.
- Those interested in the surplus items will contact the Owner of the items directly for information and/or to arrange pickup of the items. Items are distributed on a first come, first served basis.
- If you need help to relocate the items, submit a Work Request.
- Owner of the surplus items will email Facilities Services when the items have been claimed or are no longer available.
- Facilities Services will send a notice to all employees via the WSU-Surplus email address that the items are no longer available.
If there are unclaimed items after the 7 day period, email Facilities at surplus@winona.edu to arrange a pick up.
Items should be stored until Facilities has arranged and confirmed pick up. Do not place items in hallways.
We may ask that you place items by a loading dock or exterior door so that it’s easier for our team to pick up.
Once the items are brought back to Facilities, we will determine if the items should be advertised to our statewide colleagues who qualify for them or if it should get recycled.
If your department wants to advertise items on the statewide auction, the item must have a minimum value of $50.
This is what the State charges us to advertise each item.
If you think the item meets the minimum value criteria, reach out to Facilities. We will work with you to plan the next steps.
