Amazon lockers You may have noticed some new Amazon lockers located in the Central Services Building (CSB) Atrium. These are now available for your use if you want to have your parcels delivered here to the University.  If you haven’t used the Amazon Locker system before here’s a ‘how to’ guide:

How does Amazon Locker work?

Amazon Lockers are self-service kiosks where you can receive your Amazon.co.uk parcels. You can select a locker location and collect your parcel at a time that's convenient for you.

How do I start using Amazon Locker?

Firstly you need to add Amazon Locker Coconut to your Amazon.co.uk address book:

  1. Click on this link www.amazon.co.uk/addcoconut
  1. You’ll be redirected to the Amazon sign in page. When prompted, sign in to your Amazon.co.uk account
  2. Once you’re signed in, we’ll automatically add the Amazon Locker address to your Amazon.co.uk address book

Once the address is in your address book, you can select "Dispatch to this address" during the checkout process and complete your transaction as usual. All items must be eligible for delivery to a locker.

Collections

Once your parcel is delivered to the Amazon Locker, you'll receive an e-mail notification with a unique pickup code. When you arrive to collect your parcel, enter your pickup code or scan the barcode using the barcode scanner and follow the instructions on the screen.

All parcels delivered to locker locations must be picked up within three business days. If you're not able to collect your parcel within approximately 72 hours, the parcel will be returned for a full refund.  To enable as many students and staff as possible to use these lockers please try to collect your parcel as soon as possible.

How do I find Amazon Locker?

The Amazon Locker is located in the Central Services Building (CSB). The locker is to your right as you pass through the main entrance. This location is open 24 hours a day for students and staff.  For information when you are arranging your delivery online you will see that the University’s pick up location is called ‘Coconut.’
